Abstract:
The aim of this research was to present a new methodology for the assessment of financial health of a company, called the Come Clean Bankruptcy (CCB) model. The ultimate objective of the model is to detect the signs of impending bankruptcy based on a set of selected financial indicators reflecting the capital structure, liquidity and overall growth of the company. The CCB model was applied on a data sample comprising 199 entities operating in the textile/clothing industry in the Czech Republic. The outputs were compared with the actual development of those companies in 2013-2020 in order to assess whether the model can be effectively employed in practice.
