Statistics"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The following graphs show the numbers of notices of appointment published in the Gazette on a weekly basis.\u00a0 Therefore, they likely lag a week or so behind the actual dates of appointment.\u00a0 The graphs are updated each week.<\/p>\n<p>Although there are very few moratoriums and restructuring plans, I thought I might as well provide graphs for those too.\u00a0 I have drawn the data for these from the Insolvency Service&#8217;s monthly statistics.<\/p>\n<p>The quarterly figures for dissolutions (voluntary and compulsory) have been drawn from Companies House&#8217;s statistics.\u00a0 Liquidations pale into insignificance against the number of dissolutions: over the last four reported quarters, there were 750,000 dissolutions but only c.31,000 liquidations (all types).<\/p>\n<p>The following are the changes over Q4 2025 compared with Q4 2024:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>CVLs: &lt;1% change in Q4 2025 (although the trend since 2023 is a steady decrease as the graph below illustrates)<\/li>\n<li>MVLs: 50% lower than in Q4 2024 (not surprising given 2024&#8217;s spike)<\/li>\n<li>ADMs: 9% higher<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">BKYs: 13% lower (although this quarter included the InsS ISCIS change hiccup on 31 Oct, I would have thought they would have caught up with the backlog, so Q4 25&#8217;s lower count presumably does reflect a lower uptake in BKYs)<\/span><\/li>\n<li>WUCs: 21% lower (again, I would have expected the ISCIS interruption to have been overcome in the quarter.\u00a0 It certainly doesn&#8217;t <em>feel <\/em>like there&#8217;s less HMRC winding-up activity out there but the graph does suggest a downward trend)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: revert; color:
