Germany is grappling with a concerning trend as corporate bankruptcies soar to unprecedented levels. Recent data from the IWH economic institute reveals a stark reality: the number of insolvencies among partnerships and corporations surged by 9% month-over-month to reach 1,297 cases in March. This marks a substantial 35% increase compared to the same period last year and stands 30% higher than the March average observed between 2016 and 2019.

There was a statistic somewhere that said less than 1% of companies make it to 100 years old..
SO, that means many are going to go bankrupt.
The real question is, are the businesses in question worth bailing out?
