The Informal Sector
Interconnectedness, partnerships and continuity with the formal sector

So where does the informal sector end and the formal sector start?


Interconnectedness with the formal sector
A re the formal and informal sectors distinct and separate? The informal sector does not exist in vacuum - there are clear interconnectedness, partnerships and continuity with the formal sector - maintaining a two way flow of labour, goods, finances etc between the two sectors.

The dividing line that separates the two sectors is also hazy, further buildng a 'smooth continuum' between them
