In his recent memoir, Stress Test, Geithner says, “I basically restored the New York Fed board to its historic roots as an elite roster of the local financial establishment.” His choices included Dick Fuld, CEO of Lehman Brothers, which failed spectacularly in September 2008, and Stephen Friedman, a Goldman Sachs board member, who resigned as chair of the New York Fed’s board after being accused of inappropriately trading Goldman stock during the financial crisis.
在其最新的回忆录《压力测试》（Stress Test）中，盖特纳说：“我基本上重建了纽约联储理事会，让其回归了地方金融系统精英俱乐部的历史根源。”他的选择包括迪克·福尔德（Dick Fuld，在2008年9月轰然倒闭的雷曼兄弟公司CEO）和史蒂芬·弗里德曼（Stephen Friedman，高盛董事会成员，在金融危机期间被控不当交易高盛股票，因此辞去了纽约联储理事会主席之职）。盖特纳还建立了一个纽约联储和摩根大通之间的复杂网络，其中一部分至今仍然存在。
