A year counts only once every company of that founding year has reached it (data up to 24 September 2026). Several founding years are combined year by year, on those still going the year before.

Method and sources

Only companies, non-profits and foundations. They publish their founding and their end in the Belgian Official Gazette. Sole traders do not publish their end, so they are not counted.
No curve from the KBO alone. The KBO open data holds only companies that are still registered. A company that stopped disappears from it. For 375,286 known legal entities, the KBO no longer holds any registration. Using the KBO alone therefore counts only survivors and always arrives at 100%.
The founding deed as the starting point, from 2010. Every company publishes its founding in the Gazette, whether it survives or not. For every founding year since 2010, the founding deed of at least 99.2% of the companies is in those publications, against at most 39.5% for 2003 to 2009. Among the companies still registered, the founding deed is there for 99.7%. Among those that left the KBO since April 2026, it is 99.7%. Whether a company stopped later makes no difference to those publications.
Identifying the founding deed. Enterprise numbers are handed out in order. A company's first deed counts as its founding when it matches the start dates of the numbers just before and after it. In a test on companies with a start date in the KBO, 100.0% of the true foundings were recognised. Wrongly, 1.3% of later first deeds were accepted as a founding.
End and end date. A bankruptcy and a judicial dissolution count on the date of the judgment, a merger on the date of the deed and a strike-off on its own date. Otherwise the last deed under the end rubric (dissolution or closure of the liquidation) counts. A company that left the KBO without such a publication counts as stopped otherwise. Its end then lies between its last sign of life and the day it left the KBO. The bankruptcies of June 1997 to April 2018 also count on the date of the judgment, from the Gazette's texts before RegSol. In a sample, 99% of those bankruptcies were found in those texts. As a result, fewer companies founded in 2010 to 2017 have an end without a fixed date.
Ways of stopping. Stopping is not always failing. A voluntary dissolution can be a planned end, a merger a success. That is why each way of stopping is kept apart, and only a bankruptcy counts as a bankruptcy.
No curve by sector. The KBO shows a company's activity only while it is registered. Of the 167,129 stopped companies in these tables, 133,244 no longer have a registration, and so no sector. By sector, mostly survivors would count. That is why there is no curve by sector.
Place. The place is the municipality of the seat in the company's last deed. It is the same for survivors and for companies that stopped.
