CREDIT SUISSE

Credit Suisse crossed with 2012

Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Credit Suisse and 2012 — sum to $717,670. 412 itemized contributions and 216 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables.

Neither the Credit Suisse hub nor the 2012 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. Two hundred sixteen donors and 412 Credit Suisse lines in 2012 sit under the two-word bank brand. First Boston Corp is a related historical spelling with its own 2012 cell and is not merged here. Successor or abbreviated CS labels stay on their own keys if stored separately. CREDIT SUISSE GROUP, CREDIT SUISSE SECURITIES, CSFB, FIRST BOSTON CORP, and generic BANKER occupation strings are other keys.

18.5% of the Credit Suisse roll

The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $3,880,425 ($3.9 million). The 2012 slice of $717,670 is about 18.5% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 81.5%. Treating 2012 as the Credit Suisse FEC story would ignore that remainder.

Treat $3,880,425 as the denominator for the 18.5% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2012 from being folded silently into $3,880,425.

Questions

How much did Credit Suisse donors give in 2012?

FEC.gov aggregates show $717,670 in itemized individual contributions for the Credit Suisse grouping in the 2012 cycle, across 412 contributions and 216 donors. That sum is not a PAC total and not the $3,880,425 all-cycle figure.

What share of Credit Suisse FEC money is 2012?

The grouping’s all-cycle total is $3,880,425. The 2012 cell of $717,670 is about 18.5% of that figure. Other cycles hold the remaining 81.5% on the industry hub. The overlay lists itemized rows for this cell; the Credit Suisse hub holds other cycles; the 2012 election cycle hub holds other employer strings from the same window.

Is this Credit Suisse’s PAC or an official account?

No. $717,670 is itemized individual receipts whose employer or occupation text grouped to Credit Suisse. Committee PAC filings and official organization accounts sit outside this rollup unless an individual receipt itself carries the string. The key is not a banking NAICS total and not a Credit Suisse PAC.

Where is the overlay for the Credit Suisse 2012 join?

Open Credit Suisse 2012 for the cycle overlay, Credit Suisse for the grouping hub, and the 2012 election cycle for the year without this employer filter. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. This JSON file names the join; the overlay holds the itemized rows.
