As commercial bankruptcies continue to rise, tracking supplier financial risk should be a strategic priority. When suppliers become financially distressed or fail, they can quickly trigger disruptions across the supply chain. Because organizations often rely on hundreds to tens of thousands of suppliers, mitigating this risk requires clear supplier classification, actionable financial risk insights and collaboration across departments. Risk monitoring platforms provide the most cost-effective means to accomplish this.

From January through December 2025, the PAYCE® Score predicted bankruptcies across North America, including many mega-bankruptcies with liabilities of $1 billion or more. These companies were flagged as “high risk” at least three months in advance. Importantly, nearly 50% of the largest company bankruptcies showed prompt or near-prompt trade payment behavior shortly before filing (the cloaking effect). Because of this, traditional trade-only models did not flag them. We expect private-company bankruptcies to remain elevated through 2026.

Our bankruptcy case study of FAT Brands, parent company of Johnny Rockets, shows that the FRISK® Score flagged elevated bankruptcy risk more than a year before the filing. The FRISK® Score identified elevated bankruptcy risk 12 months prior to its filing. Most importantly, crowdsourced intelligence triggered a downgrade to a FRISK® Score of "1" using insights from the credit community, including risk professionals from nearly 40% of the Fortune 1000.

From January through December 2025, the FRISK® Score maintained its 96% success rate in accurately identifying public companies that declared bankruptcy. Of the 133 companies that filed during this period, 128 were flagged as “high risk” at least three months in advance. Explore how the FRISK® Score achieves its industry-leading performance and why nearly 40% of the Fortune 1000 use it in their daily workflows.
