| Title | Issues and Challenges on The Productivity Performance of The Informal Sector in Selected APO Members |
| Author(s) | Dr. Arup Mitra |
| Description | The publication delves into informal sector challenges in 10 APO member economies (Bangladesh, Cambodia, Fiji, India, Mongolia, Pakistan, the Philippines, Thailand, Turkiye, Vietnam). Limited access to capital, technology, and marketing hinders growth despite the sector's significant workforce. Identifying constraints is crucial for productivity enhancement initiatives. COVID-19 underscores the need for sector revival assistance. Embracing product and process innovation for productivity growth is recommended. Linkages between formal and informal sectors and skilling initiatives for occupational flexibility are also highlighted. |
