German business insolvencies rose 2.4% in June, adding pressure on the government to boost economic growth, with April figures showing an 11.5% increase.
FRANKFURT (Reuters) -The number of German business insolvencies registered in June rose 2.4% from a year earlier, the German statistics office said on Friday, adding pressure on the new government to revive economic growth.
The office's statement cited preliminary figures on insolvencies, many of which were initiated three months before they were registered.
Citing final figures for April, the office said the number of insolvencies registered that month were up 11.5% from a year earlier, but creditors' claims fell to 2.5 billion euros ($2.9 billion) from 11.4 billion in April 2024, when larger companies folded.
