Begbies Traynor (GB:BEG) has released an update.
Over half a million UK businesses are currently experiencing ‘significant’ financial distress, a 30.8% increase from the previous year, with the construction, retail, and food sectors among the hardest hit. The situation is worsened by a 20.1% rise in ‘critical’ financial distress, indicating a higher risk of insolvency within the next year, particularly in consumer-facing sectors. The Begbies Traynor ‘Red Flag Alert’ report reveals that without economic improvement, many of these businesses may fail under the ongoing strain of debt and stagnant consumer confidence.
