In November 2023, 700 bankruptcies were registered in Sweden. This was even higher than immediately after COVID-19 hit in April 2020, when 578 bankruptcies were reported. The increasing number of bankruptcies in 2022 and 2023 must be seen in relation with the increasing inflation rates. The construction industry reported the highest number of bankruptcies.
The first case of the coronavirus in Sweden was confirmed on February 4, 2020. For further information about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, please visit our dedicated Facts and Figures page.
