contracción del crédito; restricción crediticia : La Fundación del Español Urgente(Fundéu BBVA), con el asesoramiento de la Real Academia Española, recomienda la expresión "contracción del crédito" como una alternativa en español a "credit crunch" e incluso preferible al término "restricción crediticia" ya que el sustantivo "contracción" implica necesariamente una reducción mientras que la voz "restricción" es más ambigua, pues podría apuntar a una limitación voluntaria del crédito. 6, record 1, Spanish, - contracci%C3%B3n%20del%20cr%C3%A9dito
