Abstract

Informal firms provide between 60 and 90 per cent of non-agricultural employment in emerging markets. This type of business exists everywhere, but it’s in developing countries that the highest rates of informality and informal new firm creation are found. Saul Estrin, Maribel Guerrero and Tomasz Mickiewicz write that governments should not simply tolerate informal entrepreneurship but turn it into an attractive option.
