Annual growth in global business insolvencies by region 2008-2023

Following the rising global inflation, business insolvencies are forecast to increase in all world regions in 2023, increasing by almost 50 percent in North America. Following a sharp increase with the 2008-09 financial crash, the number of business insolvencies in North America declined each year from 2010 to 2019. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, except for Eastern and Central Europe and Latin America, the number of insolvencies fell in all regions in 2020, despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

随着全球通货膨胀的加剧，预计2023年全球所有地区的商业破产数量将有所上升，北美地区预计将增加近50%。自2008-2009年金融危机以来，北美地区的商业破产数量自2010年至2019年逐年下降。或许出人意料的是，除了东欧和中欧以及拉丁美洲外，尽管面临COVID-19疫情的冲击，2020年所有地区的破产数量均有所下降。
