the global financial crisis slowed its pace
I'd choose a more flexible, up-to-date terminology that I've been seeing in most of my jobs in the financial market. Use "global" instead of "world", and say "slow the pace" as the financial crisis is still ongoing, but lacking strength when compared to the worst period.

the global financial crisis has offered a truce
sugestão: 'truce' comotrégua, folga
Discussion
Sim, compreendo.
O "halt", como substantivo, pode indicar tanto uma parada temporária quanto uma definitiva (do wiktionary: Halt - A cessation, either temporary or permanent).
Trégua, no contexto, significa "suspensão", "abrandamento". Talvez "truce", "softening" ou coisa parecida expresse melhor a idéia.
