BY JEREMY NOBILE Mirroring a national trend, Ohio’s commercial and per- sonal bankruptcy filings continued to plunge in 2015, hitting a multi-year low in response to factors in- cluding a generally stronger economy and a prolonged low-interest rate environment. But that could change this year, partic- ularly for corporate filings tied to more unstable industry sectors, like oil and gas, which many businesses in this region are exposed to. According to the American Bank- ruptcy Institute, all filings in the Unit- ed States fell 10% in the 2015 calendar year from 2014. That includes a 14% annual drop in commercial filings and 10% drop for consumers.
