The informal economy is an area that is receiving significantly more policy focus. This new policy focus is important in developing countries, where informal employment provides a key source of income for poor households. From an employment policy perspective, the possibility of making the informal economy grow to absorb more entrants, or it growing into expansion of the formal economy are important policy questions. The focus area on the informal economy provides for a sharing of resources on the informal economy, reviews country experiences and traces strategies to intervene in the informal economy.
