Abstract:

This article presents a model to estimate the principal determinants for informal investment in Mexico, taking the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor for the years 2006, 2008 and 2010 as the source of information. The model is estimated by a logistic regression. The results show that informal investment in Mexico has some determinants that are similar to other countries, but it also has it ?s own particular determinants.
