Main messages

Individual insolvencies in Q3 2020

Overall numbers of individual insolvencies in England and Wales decreased sharply in Q3 2020 when compared with both Q2 2020 and the same quarter in the previous year.

This decrease was driven by individual voluntary arrangements though this was somewhat artificial – a single provider submitted a large number of late registrations in May 2020 resulting in a high volume of IVAs in Q2 2020.

Bankruptcies increased while debt relief orders decreased in the latest quarter, though both remain low.
