💡 Distress = Opportunity

The UK economy is teetering. In the first half of 2025 alone, more than 13,500 companies entered insolvency, nearly matching last year’s already elevated levels. Behind this number lies a market under immense strain: rising operational costs, fragile consumer demand, and tightening credit are all forcing businesses over the edge.

But this wave of failures represents one of the most active deal-making landscapes in over a decade. Undervalued assets, contracts, and even entire brands are becoming available at prices well below replacement value.
