Description
Summary:This article presents the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the scale of corporate bankruptcies in Poland. The study aims to determine the changes in the number of corporate bankruptcies during the COVID-19 pandemic according to the following criteria: type of procedure, type of activity, and province/region.

The results indicate that the totalnumber of corporate bankruptcies and restructuring proceedings has increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research shows that in 2021, in comparison to the previous year, there were 65.8% more bankruptcy and restructuring proceedings, but most of them (82%) werecarried out in the form of simplified restructuring procedures for approval of the arrangement in-troduced as part of the anti-crisis shield. The basis of the study was state public aid spent to support businesses in coping with the negative economic and social consequences triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic.
