The largest recipient of funds from the 2008 bailout was American International Group (AIG), which received approximately $182 billion in government assistance. This support was primarily in the form of loans and equity investments aimed at stabilizing the company, which was heavily exposed to toxic mortgage-backed securities. Other significant recipients included major banks and financial institutions like Bank of America, Citigroup, and Wells Fargo, but AIG topped the list in terms of total bailout funds received.
