UK Director Distress Index: Composite Company-Distress Signal Tracker

A structured index of nine real-time UK company-distress trackers — company insolvencies, winding-up petitions, HMRC tax debt and Time to Pay, director disqualifications, Bounce Back Loan defaults, Licensed Insolvency Practitioner numbers, late payment, strike-off objections and pub closures — each drawn from a named official or industry source (Insolvency Service, The Gazette, HMRC, Companies House, British Business Bank, gov.uk Payment Practices Reporting, BBPA). Combining these signals captures financial pressure on UK companies before it shows up in the headline insolvency count, since petitions, tax arrears and enforcement action tend to move first. Published by LTD Turnaround (ltdturnaround.co.uk), a UK company-distress information and Licensed Insolvency Practitioner introduction service operated by Best Business Loans Ltd (Companies House 16833937). Each row is one tracker: its current headline reading, named source, source URL and update cadence.
