| Abstract: | The literature on corporate failure reveals little about the reasons why, of the set of firms facing similar market conditions, some will survive and others will fail. This article is concerned with the factors distinguishing survivors from failures amongst small firms and, in order to control for the effects of market conditions, is based on samples drawn from the UK construction sector. Whilst the circumstances surrounding specific cases of large firms may be well documented, our ignorance extends across size bands and across sectors. |
