In Västerbotten County, the development was the opposite.
Bankruptcies decreased by 9 percent compared to the previous year.
This is evident from up-to-date statistics from the credit information company Syna.
More limited companies
More limited liability companies were also formed in Västerbotten.
The increase was 2 percent in Västerbotten during the past year.
In the whole country, the number of new limited companies fell by 4 percent.
