Andrew Gissinger

Banking Gissinger served Countrywide Home Loans from 1994 through 1996, and then from 2000 through 2008 when the company was acquired by Bank of America. While at Countrywide, Gissinger was the president and executive managing director of the Home Loans division. He became famous for leading the 2007 "Protect Our House" campaign which urged Countrywide employees to take criticism of the company as a personal attack.

Bank of America retained Gissinger for a period of months after the acquisition to head several groups responsible for selling mortgages to consumers as the third highest-ranking official in the Bank of America Home Loans holding company. He was replaced by Craig Buffie, a 24-year Bank of America veteran.
