Ep.71 - Mitigating Against Residential Construction Insolvency in Australia

October 08, 2025 • INSOL International • Episode 71

In this episode we talk to Elizabeth Streten and Amanda Bull, both from Queensland University of Technology, about residential construction insolvency in Australia. We discuss their research into the causes of these insolvencies, their impact in Australia, and potential mitigating factors which could be applied. We ask what lessons this research might hold not only for Australia, but also for insolvency systems globally.
