The Bailout Scorecard

Last update: Oct. 6, 2014

Altogether, accounting for both the TARP and the Fannie and Freddie bailout, $613B has gone out the door—invested, loaned, or paid out—while $388B has been returned.

The Treasury has been earning a return on most of the money invested or loaned. So far, it has earned $271B. When those revenues are taken into account, the government has realized a $46.2B profit as of Oct. 6, 2014.



The TARP
$475B
Total Allocation
The Treasury is authorized to spend $475 billion of the TARP (In July 2010, the financial regulation overhaul reduced TARP’s spending cap to $475 billion from the original $700 billion.). It has created 13 different programs, to which it has promised $458 billion.

The government committed bailout money to 946 recipients. Those recipients have received a total of $425 billion. A total of $388 billion has been returned.

The Treasury has been earning a return on most of the TARP money invested or loaned. So far, the total return is: $54.1B.

The main sources of that revenue are $25 billion through dividend or interest payments, $20 billion from sales of equity or other assets that Treasury acquired (mostly stock in Citigroup); and $9.53 billion through stock warrants which Treasury received as part of most of the investments. When companies pay back the TARP investment, the warrants are either sold back to the company or auctioned off.

When those revenues are taken into account, the government's profit totals $17 billion.

While the Treasury has paid out money to 946 recipients, only 781 of those received funds via investments meant to return money to taxpayers. The rest received subsidies through TARP’s housing programs – that money (so far totaling $13.5 billion) isn’t coming back.

Of the 781 investments made by the Treasury, 554 have resulted in a profit. 116 of the investments resulted in a loss. So far, the profits amount to $63.6 billion, while the losses amount to $17.4 billion. 111 of the investments are still outstanding.



Fannie and Freddie

The total amount invested in Fannie and Freddie so far is $187B.

The Treasury has been earning a return on its investments, which has resulted in a profit. So far the companies have paid $219B in dividends to the Treasury.
