Investor Analysis
UK property company insolvencies have hit a decade high, up 60% year-on-year, driven by elevated financing costs, subdued transaction volumes, and regulatory complexity. The signal spans estate agents, developers, and landowners, indicating systemic stress across the sector.
Investor Relevance
