The gray economy sector in Bulgaria shrunk to 28% in 2016, according to data from the annual survey of the Association of Industrial Capital. This way Bulgaria is leaving the group of countries with the largest share of gray sector and the trend has been sustainable, chairman of the organization, Vasil Velev, said.
