UK: Late Payment, Business Distress & Insolvencies
Six in 10 UK small businesses say late payments prevent them from reaching their full potential. A new GoCardless report, commissioned by the Federation of Small Businesses, highlights the growing issue of late payments for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in the UK. A survey of over 2,000 SMBs found that 45% have experienced more late payments than last year, with 50% expecting the problem to worsen over the next 12 months. The survey also found that late payments impact business growth, cash flow, and mental well-being, with 52% forfeiting late payments up to 10 times a year. Furthermore, 36% of SMBs say that late incoming payments affect their ability to pay their own suppliers on time, and 61% of small businesses say late payments are holding back their business from achieving its full potential.

11.2% of UK companies are in distress. The latest Weil European Distress Index (WEDI) indicates that business distress levels in the UK have seen particularly sharp increases compared to most of Europe, with levels at their highest since September 2023. The latest data shows that 11.2% of UK companies are in distress, compared to 9.8% the previous year, and the proportion of UK businesses with insufficient liquidity and/or inadequate capital structures (lacking robustness) has risen to 34.4% from 30.4% in 2023, while those with weak earnings or profitability accounted for 15.5% of all companies. The Index also notes that the outlook for the UK has worsened since the last report, with uncertainty remaining a key challenge. Economic forecasts, including those from the Bank of England, have grown increasingly pessimistic, further weighing on confidence and stability.

Optimism in fewer profit warnings, but winding-up petitions raise concerns. InfolinkGazette's Quarterly Report – Q1 2025 reveals that Q1 2025 saw more than 10% (107) fewer profit warnings than in Q4 2024 and 6% fewer compared to the same period last year. In addition, compared to the corresponding quarter a year ago, companies citing a material uncertainty or going concern have also reduced by 5% (although it should be noted that Q1 2024's figure was the highest InfolinkGazette had seen). Tech City Labs also recorded a 23% decrease (2479) in initial stage winding up petitions compared to Q4 2024. S. Kaler, Head of Data for InfolinkGazette at Tech City Labs, commented that the decrease in petitions seems optimistic "until you consider that Winding up petitions have gone up by over 105% in comparison to the preceding quarter." He continued: "There's a lot going on globally that is affecting UK business too, so while Q1 2025 numbers aren't quite as poor overall as Q4 2024, the outlook for the next few months remains serious."

UK compulsory liquidations in February were at their highest level in over five years. The latest UK insolvency data has shown that corporate insolvencies increased by 2.9% in February 2025 to a total of 2,035 compared to January 2025's total, and decreased by 7% compared to February 2024's figure of 2,188. Tom Russell, Vice President of R3, commented: "The monthly increase in corporate insolvencies is driven by a rise in Compulsory Liquidations, which are at their highest level in more than five years, while the year-on-year reduction is due to a fall in Creditors' Voluntary Liquidations (CVLs) and Administrations. Compulsory liquidations are often initiated by HM Revenue and Customs or local authorities as a measure of last resort, and the increase indicates a toughening of the position towards debts owed by companies to the public sector and the ongoing efforts of government to help balance their books."

UK business insolvencies begin to slow down after a record high. Allianz Trade's latest Global Insolvency Report reveals that the UK has seen a promising shift in business insolvencies, marking the first year-on-year decrease in three years. According to Allianz Trade's research, the UK registered 26,708 insolvency cases in 2024, a 5% reduction from the previous year. This decline follows significant rises, which brought insolvencies to a 10-year record high in 2023. However, Allianz Trade also warns that the UK's growth momentum is unlikely to recover significantly before 2026. Consequently, a mild decrease in UK insolvencies of 3% is anticipated in 2025, reducing cases to 25,900, followed by a larger relief in 2026 with a 7% drop to 24,000 cases. In contrast, global business insolvencies are expected to rise by 6% in 2025 and 3% in 2026, following a 10% increase in 2024.

​​​​​UK Economy
OBR halves UK growth forecast to 1% for 2025. The UK's Office for Budget Responsibility has advised that it now expects real GDP growth of 1.0% this year—half the rate in its October forecast—before it recovers to average around 1.75% over the rest of the decade. The OBR notes that, while the UK Government's planning reforms deliver a modest boost to the level of potential output of 0.2% in 2029, its cumulative growth between 2023 and 2029 is still 0.5% lower than projected in October, and the level of productivity is over 1% lower. However, if the UK economy continues to track its recent trend, the OBR warns that output could be 3.2% lower and the current budget could be 1.4% of GDP in deficit by the decade's end. And if global trade disputes escalate to include 20% rises in tariffs between the US and the rest of the world, this could reduce UK GDP by a peak of 1%.

Annual UK GDP in 2024 is now estimated to have increased by 1.1%. The latest Office for National Statistics (ONS) data estimates that UK real GDP increased by 0.1% in Quarter 42024, unrevised from the ONS' first estimate. Real GDP is estimated to have increased by 1.5% compared with the same quarter a year ago. Looking at the quarters open to revision, real GDP growth is unrevised in five of the eight quarters compared with the first estimate, with growth in Quarter 4 2023 to Quarter 2 2024 each revised up 0.1%. Real annual GDP in 2024 is now estimated to have increased by 1.1%, revised up from the first estimated increase of 0.9%; this follows an unrevised increase of 0.4% in 2023.

S&P Global forecasts 0.8% growth for the UK economy in 2025. S&P Global has revised its expectation for UK economic growth down this year from 1.5% to 0.8% on the back of inflationary pressures, uncertainty over external demand, and tighter monetary policy. UK GDP expanded by 0.9% in 2024, reflecting strong momentum in the year's first half but stagnated in the second half. S&P Global also notes that a loss of cost competitiveness and a challenging global environment have hit exporters and manufacturers hard in recent years, and this is set to continue. However, on the upside, S&P Global predicts that many of the constraints to growth in 2025 should ease in 2026, helping the UK economy bounce back unless risks to growth materialise.

​
The UK economy shrank unexpectedly in January. Recent Office for National Statistics (ONS) analysis estimates that monthly GDP fell by 0.1% in January 2025, mainly caused by a fall in the production sector, after growth of 0.4% in December 2024. Real GDP is estimated to have grown by 0.2% in the three months to January 2025, compared with the three months to October 2024. Services grew by 0.4% over this three-month period, while production fell by 0.9% and construction grew by 0.4%. Looking over the longer term, GDP is estimated to have grown by 1.2% in the three months to January 2025, compared with the three months to January 2024. Compared with the same month a year ago, GDP is estimated to be 1.0% higher in January 2025.

Trade tensions and Eurozone weakness cloud the UK's economic outlook. A new UK Economic Conditions report by Tokio Marine HCC notes that the UK's 2025 growth outlook remains disappointing, as trade tensions with the US escalate and the eurozone's weak performance, especially in Germany, impacts UK trade. In January, the OECD and the IMF projected real GDP growth in the UK at 1.7% and 1.6%, respectively, but the Bank of England halved its forecast to 0.8% in February. Meanwhile, Consensus Economics, which aggregates projections from various forecasters, currently expects 1.4% growth, though risks remain tilted towards the downside. The potential for increased US tariffs on British exports, which accounted for 22% of UK exports in 2023, poses a significant risk, though services (making up 70% of UK exports to the US) may be less affected. While business failures in the UK dropped by 5% in 2024, insolvencies remain above pre-COVID levels, with 23,880 failures.

Modest UK Growth, but the outlook is clouded by risk. The National Institute of Economic and Social Research's (NIESR) latest UK GDP tracker has found that the outturn for month-on-month GDP growth performed worse than projected—a contraction of 0.1% in January—primarily driven by a notable contraction in the Production sector. NIESR notes that, as expected, UK economic momentum has been losing steam following the strong recovery in the first half of last year, followed by a lacklustre performance in the second half of 2024. As a result, NIESR now projects that UK GDP will expand by 0.3% in Q1 2025, with growth primarily driven by the Services sectors.

All areas of the UK look set to see steady economic growth over the next three years. According to the EY UK Regional Economic Forecast 2025, while all areas of the UK are set to see steady economic growth over the next three years, London and the East of England are the only two areas expected to grow at a faster pace than the UK average EY suggests that the UK overall is expected to see annual average Gross Value Added (GVA) growth of 1.6% between 2025 and 2028, while London and the East of England are both forecast to achieve annual GVA growth of 1.7% between 2025 and 2028. Close behind are the South East, the South West and Northern Ireland, which are all forecast to match the UK's pace, with annual GVA growth of 1.6% between 2025 and 2028.

Mid-sized firms are expected to contribute £745 billion to the UK economy by 2028. According to new forecasts released by BDO, mid-sized businesses are predicted to contribute £745 billion to UK gross value added (GVA) by 2028 and will account for more than a quarter (27%) of total UK GVA. This compares to £545 billion (24%) in 2023. Despite making up less than 1% of all UK businesses, the mid-market is expected to contribute 41% of cumulative total GVA growth in the next three years. The professional services sector is projected to be the largest contributor to GVA (£260 billion) by 2028, with manufacturing forecast to be the second largest contributing sector, with mid-sized manufacturers expected to generate £132 billion in GVA. Consumer markets, technology, media and telecoms, as well as real estate and construction, follow as major contributors.

62% of UK firms with trade exposure to the USA say US tariffs will negatively impact them. A snap poll of more than 600 businesses by the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) has revealed that 62% of UK firms with trade exposure to the US expect to take a hit from the tariffs. Looking at the breakdown, 20% report a significant negative impact, 42% report some negative impact, 16% report no impact, 5% report some positive impact, and 2% report significant positive impact. 44% of firms with exposure to the USA say the UK should seek to negotiate a closer trade relationship with the USA, and 43% want closer trade with other markets. The survey also showed that 40% of firms considered the 10% tariff to be better than they had been expecting. Alongside increasing prices, 15% said they would seek alternative suppliers, while 13% said they expected to absorb the costs. Around a third (36%) said they would take no action at this time.

​​
UK retail closures are stabilising with fewer one-off failures. New research from PwC has found that UK store openings slowed to 25 per day in 2024 while closures stabilised, reducing to a net 10 closures per day. This slowdown is particularly noticeable in traditionally high-decline categories such as fashion, charity, and betting shops. Altogether, 12,804 shops and outlets belonging to multiples and chains (those with five or more outlets) exited UK high streets, shopping centres and retail parks in 2024. This is equivalent to 35 daily closures and the second-fewest closures in a decade. Openings follow a similar trend, with numbers slowing slightly to 25 per day—an improvement from the number of store openings during the pandemic but lower than the 34 per day peak during the mid-2010s. Closures are stabilising with fewer one-off failures and restructurings, leading to just 10 net closures per day, three less than in 2023. To read PwC's news release, go to https://www.pwc.co.uk/industries/retail-consumer/insights/store-openings-and-closures.html.
​
UK high street sales flatline. According to BDO's latest High Street Sales Tracker, total retail sales in discretionary spend categories grew by +1.8% in March, failing to offset a negative base of -2.2% in the same month in 2024. Sales in-store increased by just +0.3%, compared to a negative base in March 2024 of -1.8%. As this is well below the rate of inflation, BDO notes that this means that actual sales volumes shrank in March compared to the same month last year. The lifestyle and homewares sectors fared particularly poorly last month, with sales in-store shrinking by -0.7% and -2.8% respectively compared to the same period last year. Online sales were the primary driver of growth, increasing by +6.1%.

Global: Late Payment, Insolvencies & Global Economy
Data indicates a rise in corporate distress in Europe. The latest Weil European Distress Index (WEDI) suggests an increase in corporate distress across Europe, which, as of February 2025, reached its highest level in six months. Germany and the UK (see paragraph above) have experienced particularly sharp increases, with German corporate surging to its highest level since July 2020, the height of the pandemic. Corporate distress also reached its highest level in France since August 2020. In contrast, the WEDI indicates that Spain and Italy have shown considerable resilience. Although distress levels saw a marginal quarterly rise, they have eased on a year-by-year basis. To read the Index, go to https://www.weil.com/articles/the-weil-european-distress-index.
​
2022–2026: Five successive years of increasing insolvencies. Allianz Trade's latest Global Insolvency Report predicts that global business insolvencies will continue to rise over the next two years. After a 10% increase in 2024, insolvencies are projected to grow by 6% in 2025 and 3% in 2026, resulting in five consecutive years of rising insolvencies from 2022 to 2026. However, the possibility of a trade war could push insolvency rates even higher. Maxime Lemerle, Lead Analyst for insolvency research at Allianz Trade, commented: "A full-fledged trade war would increase our insolvency forecast by an additional +2.1pp and +4.8pps, meaning that global business insolvencies would rise by +7.8% and +8.3% in 2025 and 2026 respectively. For 2025–2026, this would mean +6,800 additional cases in the US and +9,100 in Western Europe".

​
Insolvencies normalise, but a trade war brings new risks. Analysis from Atradius (published one day after President Trump's 'Liberation Day') suggests that while the ongoing trade war and higher tariffs will negatively affect growth, the impact on insolvencies may be limited, with global insolvencies remaining stable in 2025 before declining by 5% in 2026. Atradius' baseline scenario indicates that the Asia-Pacific region could see the largest decrease in insolvencies, with a 3% drop in 2025 and a 21% decrease in 2026. Insolvencies in North America could remain unchanged in both 2025 and 2026, while Europe could see a slight increase in 2025, followed by a 6% decline in 2026. However, Atradius notes that its baseline scenario is highly uncertain and warns that a full-blown trade war could increase global insolvencies by 6% in 2025 and 5% in 2026, with Asia-Pacific most affected. The US would also see business insolvencies rise by 7% in 2025 and 5% in 2026. To read Atradius' news release, go to https://group.atradius.com/knowledge-and-research/reports/economic-research-insolvency-outlook-april-2025.
​
Atradius lowers its eurozone GDP growth forecasts by 0.3% to 0.9% for 2025 and 1.2% for 2026. Shortly before President Trump's 'Liberation Day', Atradius predicted some of the economic implications which could ensue should the US apply tariffs of between 10% and 25% on a range of EU imports in 2025. Atradius notes that the US is the EU's largest export market, and as such, it has already lowered its eurozone GDP growth forecasts by 0.3% to 0.9% for 2025 and 1.2% for 2026. However, EU countries will not be impacted equally, and among the large EU countries, Atradius estimates that Germany could be hardest hit with growth of just 0.1% in 2025—0.5% less than what might otherwise have been expected. Atradius also cites Oxford Economics' calculation that a blanket 10% US tariff on EU goods would see the level of business investment in the eurozone fall by almost two percentage points by the end of 2027.

​
Recent activity indicators point to a softening of global growth prospects. The OECD's Economic Outlook, Interim Report, March 2025, predicts that global GDP growth will moderate from 3.2% in 2024 to 3.1% in 2025 and 3.0% in 2026. Annual real GDP growth in the US is expected to slow from its "very strong" recent pace to 2.2% in 2025 and 1.6% in 2026. Euro area real GDP growth is projected to be 1.0% in 2025 and 1.2% in 2026, as heightened uncertainty keeps growth subdued. Growth in China is projected to slow from 4.8% this year to 4.4% in 2026. Furthermore, the OECD has revised down its growth forecasts for the UK, predicting an expansion of 1.4% in 2025 (down from 1.7% ) and 1.2% in 2026. To read the OECD's report, go to https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/oecd-economic-outlook-interim-report-march-2025_89af4857-en.html.
​​
Trade in goods with the US in 2024. Eurostat has advised that in 2024, the EU exported €531.6 billion in goods to the US and imported €333.4 billion, resulting in a €198.2 billion trade surplus. Compared with 2023, exports increased by 5.5%, while imports declined by 4.0%. The top 5 most exported divisions in 2024 made up 49.5% of all exports to the US. These were medicinal and pharmaceutical products (22.5%), road vehicles (9.6%), general industrial machinery and equipment (6.4%), electrical machinery, appliances and electrical parts (6.0%) and machinery specialised for particular industries (5.0%). Similarly, for imports, the top 5 divisions accounted for 50.4% of all imported goods. These were petroleum, petroleum products and related materials (16.1%), medicinal and pharmaceutical products (13.8%), power-generating machinery and equipment (9.2%), gas, natural and manufactured (5.8%) and other transport equipment (5.5%).

​How much compensation can you claim for unpaid invoices? Paidnice has launched a Late Payment Calculator. Users can instantly calculate statutory interest and late payment compensation fees on business invoices under UK law using the latest Bank of England base rate. Under The Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998, UK businesses are legally entitled to:
-
Statutory interest of 8% plus the Bank of England base rate for business-to-business transactions
-
Compensation for recovery costs (£40, £70, or £100 depending on the debt amount)
-
The right to claim interest from the day payment becomes overdue
For example, for an unpaid debt of £100 due on 20 January 2025, the amount owing as of 6 April 2025 would be £142.60 (£2.60 in interest overdue, £40 in compensation). Compensation is £40 for invoices under £1000, £70 for invoices under £10,000 and £100 for invoices above £10,000. Compensation can be charged for each overdue invoice due from a debtor.
