Methodology

Firmwatch classifies Gazette insolvency notices by event type, enriches companies from Companies House where available, and groups events by company, sector, region, and event date.

A notice can represent a stage in an insolvency process rather than a final outcome. Use the event type and source date when interpreting company status.

Sources: The Gazette and Companies House. The report uses Firmwatch event classification and company enrichment, then groups events by publication date, sector, and registered office region where available.

Monitor the companies behind the index.

Upload a client, customer, or supplier list and get alerts when a material company risk event appears.
