• An increase in debt payment leads to consumers changing their behaviour, instead of seeking to borrowing, the consumers pay off their debt leading to the saving ratio to decrease in time.

For example, in 2008 the banks let losses fall, with a decline of money leading in bank liquidity banks in general found it hard to borrow money to keep their business intact, it was hard for banks to find ways of borrowing money for investment due to their previous records, this led to the economy falling into recession despite there being APR.

Depression can lead to a high increase of unemployment. It is more likely a balance sheet recession can cause depression. Due to falling asset prices and bank losses, this has a large impact on economic activity.

Recession is common in many countries; it is all part of the business cycle. Depression means there is a fall in economic activity lasting for a number of years. Economists will not agree with depression as they believe it is plagued by declining economic activity However, there are other economists that argue depression continues up until the point that the activity has returned to its original state.
