From S&P Global Market Intelligence: June marked a historic surge in US #corporate bankruptcy filings, with the highest number recorded in a single month since at least the start of 2020 and surpassing half-year figures seen in over a decade. Read more: https://okt.to/6UCLKx

Since the late 1990s, the number of US publicly traded companies has plunged from just over 8K in 1996 to about 4.6K in 2022. (It’s bounced back a bit more recently.) There’s no shortage of theories about why this has occurred. A favorite, among American executives, is that new regulations that followed fraud and accounting scandals of the early 2000s — best embodied by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 — simply made going public too costly, especially for smaller companies. The self-serving conclusion that such inconveniences ought to be done away with is heavily implied. This doesn’t make much sense, as the number of public companies had been tumbling for years before those new rules came into existence, much less went into force. Another popular explanation is the rise of private equity and venture capital. #stocks #market #economics #investing

For all the reasons outlined, the fall in public companies from 7,300 in 1996 to 4,300 today is one thing but the growth in private companies in the US backed by PE firms from 1,900 to 11,200 over the past two decades is as stated quite staggering. The factors driving this change have no resolution. Frankly the level of liquidity in the secondary markets means that this trend will continue so you can be as worried as you want but it is not going to change.

I help companies protect and max cash flow | More Success & Opportunity, Less Anxiety 😉Sales & Finance Are Cool #thetradecreditgirl
"The increase is most visible among large companies, where there were 236 bankruptcy filings in the first four months of this year, more than double 2022 levels, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence." One of THE most common excuses I hear to NOT take or keep an initial #risk analysis with me is "our key accounts are all huge, strong companies." Consider. Would you feel the impact to #cashflow if one of them stopped paying to restructure their own debt? DM with questions, anytime.

In December 2023, Bloomberg noted the expected corporate defaults never came to pass, leaving us wondering about the real state of corporate distress. Our latest insights reveal➡ 🔎 Contemporary measures of bankruptcy risks vary markedly across sectors but not over time. 💡 The main reason for this steadiness? Interest expenses for many firms haven't budged from Q3 2022 to Q2 2023, even as their overall capital costs, especially equity costs, have jumped. 🔔 Firms tend to turn into zombies long before their likelihood of bankruptcy ratchets up. Tracking zombies quarter-to-quarter endurance can be essential. Simon J.
