Begbies Traynor partner, Julie Palmer, suggested that without additional support or extension of protections for financially crippled businesses beyond December, the insolvency rate was set to surge next year.
She wrote: 'Unfortunately for the many zombie companies in existence across the UK, a perfect storm is on the horizon.'

'This in itself, combined with the end of the furlough scheme and other government support measures is likely to have a material impact on the UK business failure rate.
