Summary
WWL has been active since 2022 and the Belgian Official Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.2% (very low). No annual accounts have been filed with the National Bank; this conclusion rests only on the KBO register and the Belgian Official Gazette.
