The most mobile sector of small entrepreneurship are individual entrepreneurs who quickly react to socio-economic fluctuations. Dynamics of the number of economically active natural persons – entrepreneurs evidence of the deterioration of conditions for developing micro-business, because for the third year in a row, their number tends to decrease. This is due to the fact that the lion's share of these business entities engaged in retail trade, the volume of which in comparable prices also decrease in 2014 due to the decline in the purchasing power of the population.

Most often the employees deliberately moving into the informal sector to obtain subsidies for utilities, and physical persons - entrepreneurs so minimize your obligatory tax payments.
