<p> </p><p> </p><p>The World Bank's ‘Bilateral Estimates of Migrant Stocks in 2010'
provides an estimate for the number of British born migrants residing in other countries.
<br>According to these estimates, there are approximately 4.7 million British born
migrants living abroad.<br>http://siteresources.worldbank.org/INTPROSPECTS/Resources/334934-1110315015165/T<br>1.Estimates_of_Migrant_Stocks_2010.xls
<br><br>The United Nations (UN) Department for Social and Economic Affairs updated
this table for 2013. The UN's ‘Trends in International Migrant Stock: Migrants by
Destination and Origin' suggests that around 5.0 million British born migrants <br>are
residing overseas. <br><a href="http://esa.un.org/unmigration/data/subsheets/UN_MigrantStockByOriginAndDestination_2013T10.xls"
