Creditors’ voluntary liquidations in August 2026

Creditors’ voluntary liquidations are one form of company insolvency. The Insolvency Service monthly figure is provisional.

The Insolvency Service figure is provisional and covers registered company insolvencies in England and Wales across all procedures.
