Company insolvencies in England and Wales have taken an unexpected dip. In June 2025, the Insolvency Service recorded 2,043 cases, 8% lower than May and 16% lower than the same month last year. For a country still grappling with rising costs and fragile supply chains, the fall is striking.
The number of company insolvencies fell in June 2025, down 8% from the previous month and 16% lower than June 2024.

These processes determine how creditors recover money, with secured creditors ranking ahead of unsecured ones.
