"$6.8 trillion --
"The potential amount the Fed might have lent if
“all eligible program applicants request assistance at once to the maximum permitted under the program guidelines,”
this "according to a July 21, 2009, report by the Treasury Department’s Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP."
more numbers:
" $1.5 trillion -- The Fed’s for moment of peak lending. ..
"$7.77 trillion -- The amount the Fed pledged to rescue the financial industry"
"Most of the difference between the TARP watchdog’s tally and Bloomberg’s involves one program, TALF. The inspector general attributed its $900 billion capacity to the Treasury, which was guaranteeing some of its lending. Bloomberg grouped TALF with the Fed, which created the program."
"$16 trillion -- The “total transaction amounts” for Fed lending included in a July 21, 2011, study by the Government Accountability Office"
.
"$13 billion -- An estimate of the income that 190 banks could have made from investing the Fed loans they took."
