Racial discrimination in TARP investments
by Lucas Puente; Linus Wilson
International Journal of Financial Engineering and Risk Management (IJFERM), Vol. 3, No. 1, 2019

Abstract: Minority and black owned banks were significantly less likely to receive funds from the Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) Community Development Capital Initiative (CDCI). A non-minority bank with the median characteristics was approximately ten times more likely to obtain TARP funds than an African-American owned bank after controlling for other factors. We also find prior TARP recipients and banks with fewer troubled assets were more likely to obtain money from this program.
