Abstract

The bankruptcy of an individual is a standard situation in a free market economy. The aim of this study is to present the reasons for the bankruptcy of entrepreneurs in Poland, in the light of literature research and the authors' own research. These studies were carried out in two ways – the first stage concerned the analysis of court files of entrepreneurs who filed for bankruptcy.
