Credit crunch
Posted 17 October, 2009 by Sienna B. Guzman from Matsuethank you for a most superior site. True, i ain't a newbie in full, yet there is something that i didn't understand: what does credit crunch mean?FX Sage Answers:Thanks for the vote of confidence, sienna. Credit crunch is An economic condition where investment capital is difficult to obtain. Banks and investors become wary of lending funds to corporations, thereby driving up the price of debt products for borrowers. Credit crunches are usually considered to be an extension of recessions. A credit crunch makes it nearly impossible for companies to borrow because lenders are scared of bankruptcies or defaults, which results in higher rates. The consequence is a prolonged recession (or slower recovery), which occurs as a result of the shrinking credit supply.Go to
