Surge in Business Insolvencies Drives Europe Trade Credit Insurance Market

Business insolvency occurs when a company fails to meet its financial obligations or pay its due bills, which can lead to bankruptcy or legal proceedings. The increasing cases of business insolvencies surge the adoption of trade credit insurance among businesses to safeguard them against insolvency and maintain cash flow. For instance, according to the Allianz Trade report published in February 2024, the number of bankruptcies grew by 7% in 2023, and it is expected to increase by 9% by the end of 2024. The company also predicts that the number of bankruptcies worldwide is projected to remain high by the end of 2025; this is due to delays in construction and real estate projects. Similarly, according to The Group Coface data published on April 2024, the insolvencies rate in Central & Eastern Europe (CEE) countries was highly significant in 2023. These countries witnessed approximately 38.6% rise in insolvency records from 2022 to 2023 owing to the consequences of Russia's invasion of Ukraine across the region. The growing cases of insolvencies in CEE countries are associated with low economic performance, which is caused by disrupting supply chains, geographical proximity, labor shortages, surges in energy prices, and high input costs. This increases the demand for trade credit insurance among businesses across construction, real estate, hospitality, transport, and retail industries to decrease concentration risk, reduce bad debt reserves, and maintain cash flow. Trade credit insurance also helps businesses by protecting their disrupted cash flows. Thus, the increasing cases of business insolvencies drive the Europe trade credit insurance market .
