National Insolvency Report: Monthly Statistics March 2022

Published on

National Insolvency figures published (22 April 2022) by the Government’s Insolvency Service have indicated that the number of registered company insolvencies in March 2022 was 2,114:

  • More than double the number registered in the same month in the previous year (999 in March 2021), and
  • 34% higher than the number registered three years previously (pre-pandemic; 1,582 in March 2019).

The report also states that `in March 2022 there were 1,844 Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidations (CVLs), more than double the number in March 2021 and 62% higher than March 2019.’

On the 28th March 2022 the Government has announced that the last of the Temporary Insolvency Restriction Protections are being lifted. 

To help protect businesses from insolvency a number of changes were introduced under the Corporate Insolvency and Governance Act (Coronavirus) to protect business from creditor action since June 2020. 

Most of these measures expired at the end of June and September 2021, except for restrictions on winding up companies, which were extended until 31 March 2022. This remaining insolvency restriction will not be extended further, allowing the insolvency regime to return to its pre-pandemic operation.
