UNDERSTANDING THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF BLACK AND GREY MARKETS
FAQs ABOUT BLACK & GREY MARKETS
The black market involves illegal transactions, while the grey market involves the legal but unofficial sale of goods, often circumventing authorized distribution channels.
The grey market, also known as the parallel market, involves the trade of goods through unauthorized, unofficial, or unintended distribution channels. This can significantly affect the economy in various ways:
- Revenue loss for authorized dealers and manufacturers
- Consumer risk
- Intellectual property violations
- Market distortion
- Impact on pricing and brand image
- Tax evasion and loss of government revenue
The black market can significantly impact the economy by diverting revenue from the government, reducing the effectiveness of regulations, and fostering corruption and crime.
