The researcher suggested that the banks should always provide services in form of
loans to informal sector for better informal sector performance; the banks should
always make sure that they provide business advice to the informal sector for better
performance; they should always provide bank services in form of saving people’s
money which will reduce the incidences of theft cases; the informal sector should
always make sure that the type of loans they get are properly invested to have
better returns and that the informal sectors should always make sure that the type
of loans they get have interest rates which do not threaten the growth of their businesses.
