Abstract: [eng] [cze]
This paper analyzes association of informal economy with demographic charac- teristics. The first part introduces the definition and composition of the informal economy and sets the theoretical background. It presents its consequences and causes from different points of view. In the second part, we isolate characteris- tics that predict the propensity to work in the informal economy using the probit model. The work finds that the direction of individual effects matches with find- ings in Latin America reported by Perry et al. (2007). Keywords Informal economy, Shadow economy, South Africa, econometrics Táto bakalárska práca analyzuje vzťah šedej ekonomiky s demografickými charak- teristikami. Prvá čast predstavuje definície a skladbu šedej ekonomiky a uvádza teoretický základ. Prezentuje dopady a príčiny z rôznych uhlov pohľadu. V druhej časti odlíšime charakteristiky ktoré predvídajú sklon k pracovaniu v šedej ekonomike použitím probit modelu. V tejto práci pozorujeme že smer jednotlivých efektov charakteristík súhlasi s výsledkami Perry a spol. (2007).
