Welcome to our November monthly insolvency statistics blog.

Each month we look at what the Insolvency Service has published on the total number of company insolvencies for England and Wales (for the previous month).

The data is taken from monthly company insolvency statistics created by the insolvency service.

This month saw an end to the decline in total number of company insolvencies, with a small 13% increase compared to October 2024.  

The graph below shows the total number of company insolvencies, split by the type of insolvency, the data is from November 2019 until November 2024.

  • 13% higher than last month 
  • 12% lower than November 2023
