ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO money in federal elections
Filers who listed ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO as employer or occupation on federal reports account for $3.5M ($3,525,257) in itemized receipts on FEC.gov. The cluster holds 9,695 contributions and 485 donors. The string is a historic partnership stamp — ampersand plus CO — on FEC forms. LobbyVault still ranks it because the filings exist; the label is not a NAICS accounting code, not a statement about the firm’s present legal status, and not ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP as a sibling suffix.
Key figures
- ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO as FEC employer text totals $3.5M ($3,525,257) from 485 donors.
- 9,695 contribution lines sit under that historic & CO partnership stamp.
- ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP and ACCENTURE are separate FEC keys.
- The label is self-reported form text, not a NAICS industry or a present-tense legal claim.
A legacy & CO stamp at $3,525,257
Four hundred eighty-five donors produced 9,695 contributions, about 20 itemized gifts per person. Mean gift size is about $364; mean per donor is about $7,269. FEC aggregates that span many cycles retain employer text as originally filed. People who listed ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO in older cycles remain in this cluster even if they later listed a successor firm. The packet does not split dollars by year, so this guide does not assign $3,525,257 to a single decade.
Top employer matches ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO. ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP, ARTHUR ANDERSEN without a suffix, ANDERSEN, and ACCENTURE can exist as other keys. They are not inside $3,525,257 unless they grouped to ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO. LobbyVault does not recode LLP into this & CO stamp.
485 donors and 9,695 lines
9,695 lines from 485 people is a moderate receipt pattern. Repeat gifts raise the contribution count without raising unique donors. The packet does not publish a partner-versus-staff split, an audit-versus-consulting cut, or a cycle year. Coverage is itemized federal individual receipts only.
Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and any historic committee PAC filings are outside the $3,525,257 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear.
LLP suffix and Accenture stay separate
ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP, ACCENTURE, and ACCOUNTANT are separate employer-name or title keys. Combining them with ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO would mix a historic & CO stamp, an LLP legal suffix, a successor-era brand, and a credential. This page reports $3,525,257 for ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO only.
Occupation pages show titles stored beside the & CO stamp. PARTNER, ACCOUNTANT, and CONSULTANT exist as industry keys when donors put the function in the employer box instead of ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO.
Donor table without successor inference
The ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO donor table lists disclosed names, amounts, and recipient committees. A large gift is a public individual contribution. LobbyVault does not attach a successor firm, an engagement, or a motive to that line. People who still type the historic & CO stamp share the string with filers from earlier cycles. The FEC field is not a partnership roster and not a statement that the partnership currently exists.
Follow committees on the table for party and office. This guide does not assign a partisan percentage to the historic stamp. Repeat names among 9,695 lines from 485 people are expected. People who typed ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP are not in these 485 unless a receipt also grouped to ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO.

& CO partnership stamp versus the LLP sibling
ARTHUR ANDERSEN & CO keyed $3.5M from 9,695 contributions and 485 donors. ARTHUR ANDERSEN LLP remains another key with its own overlay. The 485 unique donors are matching text, not a headcount of a current partnership. Occupation breakdowns list titles stored beside the & CO stamp.
