Widespread informality may hold back the recovery in these economies from the deep recessions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic-unless governments adopt a broad set of policies to address the challenges of widespread informality. This study is the first comprehensive analysis of the extent of informality and its implications for a durable economic recovery and for long-term development. It finds that pervasive informality is associated with significantly weaker economic outcomes-including lower government resources to combat recessions, lower per capita incomes, greater poverty, less financial development, and weaker investment and productivityPPN: PPN: 1802580328Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-WBA | ZDB-110-WBL
