The shadow economyis analyzed as a multifaceted phenomenon influenced by regulatory, fiscal, institutional, and socio-economic factors.Particular attention is given to the scale of informal economic activities and their implications for economic growth, fiscalsustainability, and social welfare. The study outlines and systematizes methodological approaches used to assessthe size and dynamics of the shadow sector, including indirect macroeconomic methods, indicator-based models, andcomparative analytical techniques applied in international practice. The advantages and limitations of these methodsare discussed in relation to data availability and the specific features of Uzbekistan’s economy. Based on the selectedmethodological framework, the article evaluates recent trends in the shadow economy and identifies key driverscontributing to its persistence. The findings highlight the role of tax policy, regulatory burden, labor market informality,and institutional quality in shaping the scale of the shadow economy.
