The government’s massive Troubled Asset Relief Program remains a work in progress as Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson has announced the government has all but abandoned the idea of using the lion’s share of $700 billion in “rescue” funds to purchase troubled mortgage assets. But he reported helping homeowners avoid foreclosure continues to remain a top priority at Treasury. Will all of TARP funding go towards propping up a growing number of financial institutions? Or will some of the funding be channeled towards some sort of mortgage rescue plan? Will there be a TARP II?
Find out what’s going on with TARP and how it will potentially impact a variety of mortgage market players by listening to the Inside Mortgage Finance audio conference held on Nov. 20. Hear from a panel of legal and market experts about the opportunities and challenges facing those who are looking to participate in the emerging TARP initiative.
