It can be said that when regulatory role of the state is taken into account, it has great importance in terms of the whole country. The relationship between development level of the country and the share of the public sector seems to be inverse. Everything is expected from the state for the reason that there is not enough power of the private sector in less developed country. Therefore, the share of public sector is greater than the share of the private sector in less developed countries. In developed countries, the share of the private sector is greater than the public sector.
