Abstract (EN)
This chapter focuses on a macroeconomic view of HBs and on the informal sector in particular. The 2014/15 HB&IS survey provides reliable information on the main economic activity indicators of HBs. As this survey is representative at the national level, aggregates can be computed for the whole country by economic sector and by urban and rural area. In particular, we are able to compute the contribution of the non-farm household business sector as a whole, and of the informal sector in particular, to the national economy.
