Canada was less affected by the 2008 global recession due to its strong banking system, which had stricter regulations and avoided risky mortgage practices that plagued the U.S. Additionally, Canada benefitted from its natural resource sector, particularly oil and minerals, which helped sustain economic growth during the downturn. Moreover, government stimulus measures and a relatively stable housing market contributed to mitigating the recession's impact.

How does global recession influence the banking sector?

The banking sector (or the finance industry in the broader sense) is the one that triggers global recession. In 2008 for instance, the collapse of Lehman Brothers created panic in the market, creating cascades of damages to the banking systems, which triggered a domino effect in the global scope (global crisis). The impact of the global crisis made the banking system more vigilant, more prepared for other crises in the future (that is inevitable) by adding more capitals that can withstand the severe scenarios during crisis. Timothy Geithner and his team did a 'stress test' during the 2008 crisis to determine how ill or how prepared the banks were.

Effect of recession in leadway assurance company in nigeria?

The recession affected the shareholders' equity equalisation reserve of the company, which is an element of its shareholders' funds, thus constricting its underwriting retention capacity for special risks. As a result of the recession, the company's shareholders funds dipped by 32% from NGN18.2bn in 2007 to NGN12.3bn in 2008. However, as the company is conservative and maintains very strong technical reserves of over NGN8.3bn, it's balance sheet strength was not affected, though it remained static at over NGN27bn as contained in its 2008 year end audited account, which can be obtained from its Resources page at www.leadway.com.
