Research from Alares suggests the spike in business insolvencies is being driven primarily by tax debt.

Outstanding debts owed to the Tax Office are pushing a growing number of Australian businesses into voluntary administration in hopes of preventing a collapse.

Tax debt is the primary driver behind the growing number of business recovery activities engaged in by businesses of all sizes, according to Jirsch Sutherland.

Last month, ATO tax commissioner Rob Heferen said taxpayers owed over $50 billion in collectable debt, nearly two-thirds of which was owed by small businesses. In June 2019, tax debt owed to the ATO was $26.5 billion, representing a near 100 per cent…

On Tuesday, Tesla (NASDAQ:)’s CEO Elon Musk made a bold statement about the potential consequences for anyone holding a short position against his company. Musk suggested that even someone with the wealth of Bill Gates could face bankruptcy if Tesla becomes the most valuable company in the world. The context of Musk’s claim is rooted in past reports that Gates, the Microsoft (NASDAQ:) co-founder, had taken a multi-billion dollar short position in Tesla. However, the current status of Gates’s position on Tesla’s stock is not known.

Tesla’s shares have experienced a significant surge, increasing by 60% since the U.S. election results. This rally is partly attributed to Musk’s burgeoning relationship with President-elect Donald Trump….

Simplicity chief economist Shamubeel Eaqub said the rate of insolvencies was double what it was at this time in 2023.

“It’s consistent with what I would expect and I’d expect this to continue.”

He said the coming months would be tough for many businesses, if they were not in hospitality or retail.

Cashflow was a big problem for many businesses, he said. “When they run out of cash is when all the problems really come to the surface and you tend to see that spilling over into the numbers for February, March and April.”

Economic pain was still escalating and many businesses were facing lower margins because they could not raise prices, and were selling less, he said.

Munich-based spyware company FinFisher declared insolvency last month, Bloomberg and Netzpolitik Monday, amid an ongoing investigation into its business dealings. 

The controversial firm was accused of selling surveillance spyware to repressive regimes to target dissidents, activists, and journalists. “FinSpy,” the company’s most profitable spyware, has been monitored by the German government and human rights organizations for years.
