UK Insolvency Analysis: June 2023

Corporate Insolvencies are a critical barometer in measuring the sentiment and success of an economy. In recent years, insolvency data has been somewhat distorted driven by unique circumstances but we are now beginning to see the aftermath of the slowdown seen in 2020 and 2021 and a trend that continues on the decline. In this edition, we examine the data from the first Quarter of 2023, which maintains its rise in insolvencies from the previous year. So caution is certainly being flagged.
