Report on the Troubled Asset Relief Program–April 2023

Report
United States Department of the Treasury Building, Washington DC

Lawmakers created the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) in 2008 to stabilize financial markets. The TARP’s net cost will be $31 billion, CBO estimates—about the same as what the agency last reported in May 2022 and similar to OMB’s latest estimate.
