Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we focused on informal enterprises without corporate and tax registration in Cambodia and constructed corporate data on formal and informal enterprises for various empirical analyses. The results shows that formal registration promotes sales and value added for informal firms. The estimation of industrial agglomeration economies shows that industrial agglomeration had little impact on the productivity of formal firms, whereas industrial agglomeration had a positive impact on the productivity of informal firms.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

発展途上国において、企業・税務登録のないインフォーマル企業は、経済活動の大部分を占めており、貧困層に対して大きな雇用機会を生み出している。経済発展のためには、外資企業や地場のフォーマル企業が成長して、インフォーマル企業の労働者に対して、新たな雇用機会を生み出す必要がある。本研究は、こうしたメカニズムに対して、カンボジア企業データに基づくエビデンスを提示して、インフォーマルセクターに対する開発政策の指針形成に資する。
