The number of people who were declared insolvent in England and Wales hit a record high in the last quarter of 2009 and during the year in full.

The figures from the Insolvency Service marked the depth of the recession, with 35,574 people declared insolvent in the last three months of the year.

That was a rise of 25% on the same period a year earlier.

The number of businesses going bust also rose to a new annual record in 2009, with 6,355 going under.

Insolvency is not the same as Bankruptcy, which is why people and businesses take the insolvency route.
