Recent surveys conducted by the Bank of Canada show a sharp increase in recession fears among businesses and households. With inflation persisting, global trade disruptions, and a cooling job market, financial confidence across the country is shifting.
At iFinance, we understand how vital it is to provide accessible, affordable loan solutions during uncertain times. Whether it’s for essential medical needs, urgent home improvements, or unexpected life events, our flexible financing options help Canadians manage costs without compromising their financial well-being.
Recession Outlook: What Canadians Are Facing
According to the Bank of Canada’s Business Outlook and Consumer Expectations Surveys, several key indicators are driving concern:
- 📉 32% of firms expect a recession within the next 12 months—double the average in late 2024
- 💸 Rising input costs are prompting businesses to increase prices, contributing to inflation
- 🧊 Hiring and investment plans are softening, suggesting a more cautious economic environment
- 🌍 U.S. tariffs and global trade tensions are creating ripple effects that impact domestic markets
