Attorney Denys Popov notes that a large number of registered businesses owned by one person or company can be an alarming sign – it is worth checking the reputation and information about such a company before interacting.
“By law, any citizen or company can register an unlimited number of businesses. At the same time, this allows unscrupulous businesses to register companies for fictitious persons who will not be responsible for the company’s obligations in the future. Most often, this trend is found in businesses that are preparing for bankruptcy in advance or in one-day companies that do not aim to actually do business,” comments Denys Popov, attorney, insolvency officer, legal engineer at Opendatabot.

“This is the moment for Britain to determine its future,” he emphasized.
The election campaign will begin in the country after the dissolution of Parliament.

Earlier in May, the Conservative Party of the current British Prime Minister lost almost half – 474 – of the seats in local councils in the English elections. The Conservatives had about 1,000 seats in English councils so far.
The Liberal Democrats gained an additional 104 seats, while the Greens gained 74 seats. In addition, taking advantage of the Conservatives’ failure, some smaller parties improved their positions.

Germany’s central bank expects the country’s economy to grow in April-June for the second consecutive quarter after falling at the end of 2023.
According to preliminary calculations of the statutory office of the Federal Republic of Germany, in January-March GDP increased by 0.2% compared to the previous three months. It fell 0.5% in October-December 2023.
“The economy is likely to expand slightly again in the second quarter,” the Bundesbank said in a statement on Wednesday.
Activity in the services sector was likely to have continued to strengthen on the back of rising household income and consumer spending.
“Growth in household disposable income is likely to take the upper hand from consumer uncertainty,” Central Bank analysts suggested.
However, they noted that the construction sector remains very weak.
The German labor market is expected to remain resilient and wages look set to continue to rise rapidly. This could be a risk to cooling inflation, which the Bundesbank estimates will accelerate slightly again in May.
The final data on Germany’s first-quarter GDP dynamics will be released on May 24, while preliminary information for the second quarter will be presented on July 30.
