Abstract: Lewis "Lee" Sachs was counselor to Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner and head of the Obama administration's Financial Crisis Response Team in the US Department of the Treasury. Mr. Sachs led the development and coordination of the Obama administration's Financial Stability Plan to stabilize the financial system during the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-09 (GFC). He was tasked with continued coordination with the outgoing Bush administration, as well as putting together a team to develop further restructuring plans and oversee their execution. This "Lessons Learned" is based on an interview with Mr. Sachs.
