There has been a 24.5% increase in unpaid invoices in the UK since the Covid-19 pandemic was declared.

The Covid-19 World Pandemic was declared on 11th March, with UK lockdown on 23rd March – leaving many businesses no option but to close their doors, scale down their services or move to remote working environments.

Prior to ‘Lockdown’ overdue invoices – invoices that were 10 days + past their due date – stood at 30.4% of all invoices. That figure – 13 weeks following lockdown is now at 37.9% – an increase of 24.5% with the highest rates of unpaid invoices affecting the finance, insurance, IT and communications (60%); and leisure and hospitality (55%) sectors.

Have you considered how your ‘comeback; will look? Now is the time to hone your business in readiness for life post-Covid-19. 

Businesses may well be beginning to put plans in place for getting back to ‘normality’ following lockdown, but many seem to be proceeding with caution. Rather than immediately unfurlouging employees and offering full services in house, prudent firms are looking to outsource where they can to prevent putting themselves at further financial risk.
