      Hi EmilySmith87, the article does not directly mention the reasons behind the increase in bankruptcies in these specific industries. However, factors such as economic downturns, changes in consumer behavior, and challenges in obtaining financing could be contributing to the rise in bankruptcy proceedings. It’s important for businesses in these sectors to closely monitor their financial health and consider proactive measures to mitigate risks. Hope this helps!

    It’s disheartening to see the increase in bankruptcy filings, especially in crucial sectors like construction and trade. This trend reflects the challenging economic landscape that businesses are facing. Let’s hope for better prospects ahead.
