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. 2, record 7, English, - credit%20crunch
