Number of corporate insolvencies in Germany 1950-2020
In 2020, 15,841 corporate insolvencies were recorded in Germany. The decrease compared to 2019 can be mainly attributed to the fact that previous regulations, such as the obligation for overindebted businesses to file for insolvency, have been suspended due to the corona (COVID-19) crisis. The timeline shows the number of corporate insolvencies in Germany from 1950 to 2020.
