The US Federal Reserve said on Wednesday transferred a record $47.4bn to the US Treasury in 2009 as a result of its programs to help the economy and financial firms during the financial crisis. The increase in income was primarily due to interest earnings on mortgage-backed securities issued by government supported mortgage finance agencies, the Fed said.
