The surge in large corporate bankruptcy filings in the bodog casino half of 2023 is consistent with economic conditions posing heightened bankruptcy risk for highly leveraged companies.
Retail Trade, Services, and Manufacturing saw the most notable increases in bankruptcy filings in the bodog casino half of the year, while Mining, Oil, and Gas continued to decline.

“The surge in large corporate bankruptcy filings in the bodog casino half of 2023 is consistent with economic conditions posing heightened bankruptcy risk for highly leveraged companies,” said Matt Osborn, a principal at Cornerstone Research and coauthor of the report. “Along with a general rise in interest rates, credit spreads for highly leveraged corporate issuers compared to investment grade issuers began widening in mid-2022, a shift that generally persisted into the bodog casino half of 2023.”
The number of mega bankruptcies, those filed by companies with over billion in reported assets, also increased.
