Average monthly filings so far in 2023 are also trending up after two slower years, according to additional monthly data provided by Epiq Global. Although July’s total of 362 commercial Chapter 11 filings represented a month-over-month decline from June’s 582 filings, the July total also brings average monthly filings for 2023 to 447 commercial Chapter 11s.
