- Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 (P.L. 110-343):
- Allowed the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase and insure “troubled assets” to help promote the strength of the economy and financial system.
The act established two organizations to provide broad oversight of the program—a Financial Stability Oversight Board and a Congressional Oversight Panel. - Placed audit responsibilities for the program with two individuals—a new special inspector general for the Troubled Asset Relief Program and the comptroller general. In 2010, Congress called on GAO to report annually, identifying “areas of potential duplication, overlap, and fragmentation, which, if effectively addressed, could provide financial and other benefits.”
- Allowed the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase and insure “troubled assets” to help promote the strength of the economy and financial system.
