Of the 16,469 companies formed in the BT postcode area between January 2022 and September 2023 at their own address, 58% were still on the register three years later and 41% had filed trading accounts (UK: 51% and 35%). Most of the rest never traded: they missed their first confirmation statement and were struck off at about seventeen months.
