Which segment of the economy benefited least from the TARP bailout?

A) The very large banks.
B) The homeowners.
C) The insurance companies.
D) Financial services industry.

The TARP bailout mainly focused on rescuing large banks and financial institutions instead of providing relief to struggling homeowners who were facing foreclosure or had already lost their homes due to the mortgage crisis. The insurance companies also received some support from the bailout but not as much as the big banks. Therefore, the segment of the economy that benefited least from the TARP bailout was the homeowners.
