"The latest information on company insolvencies in England and Wales from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) showed that, during a time of persistently high energy prices, more than one in ten businesses overall reported a “moderate-to-severe risk of insolvency” in August. The number of insolvencies has been on the rise since last year. During 2020 and in Q1 2021 many firms that would otherwise have failed were kept afloat by government support measures such as the furlough scheme. In Q2 2022 the total number of insolvent companies was 5,629, the highest level since Q3 2009.

In Q2 49 printing firms went bust, the highest level since Q3 2013."
