A new report from Allianz Trade suggests that construction bankruptcies are showing sharp increases across the eurozone this year, but the peak has not yet been reached and will follow next year. The latest figures show an increase in insolvencies (compared to a year ago) of +20% in Germany, +21% in Belgium, +31% in France, +35% in Italy and Sweden. In the first half of the year, thirty companies with sales greater than €50 million went bankrupt, particularly in Europe and Asia. According to Johan Geeroms, Allianz Trade’s Director of Risk Underwriting Benelux, construction is in the top three sectors most affected by major insolvencies, and large construction groups are most vulnerable.
