FIRST BOSTON CORP

A CORP abbreviation on a historic bank name

LobbyVault ranks grouped employer text. FIRST BOSTON CORP is the form committees stored when filers typed CORP rather than Credit Suisse First Boston or CSFB. The $8,479,481 total is those itemized individual gifts. It is not a NAICS 5231 brokerage rollup, not successor PAC spending, and not underwriting volume.

People who typed CREDIT SUISSE, CSFB, INVESTMENT BANKER, or LEHMAN BROTHERS sit in other rows. LobbyVault does not recode those variants into FIRST BOSTON CORP. Alumni who still type the historic CORP spelling remain among the 315. The FEC field is not a current employment census.

315 donors and 17,129 lines

315 unique donors produced 17,129 FIRST BOSTON CORP contribution lines totaling $8,479,481. That is on the order of 54 itemized receipts per donor — high paperwork volume relative to the unique-donor set. Dollars concentrate among fewer named people than partnership-wide LLP rows in this ranking. The packet does not publish a mean gift as its own FEC field.

Party share is not on the industry headline. Independent expenditures and successor PAC filings are outside the $8,479,481 unless an individual receipt itself carries this employer string. Unitemized gifts never appear. Repeat names among 17,129 lines are expected.

Questions

How much have FIRST BOSTON CORP-listed donors given federally?

LobbyVault attributes $8,479,481 to the FIRST BOSTON CORP employer string, from 17,129 contributions and 315 donors. These are itemized individual receipts, not a successor-firm PAC and not a NAICS securities total. Unitemized gifts and non-federal filings are omitted from that figure.

Is this Credit Suisse or CSFB corporate spending?

No. The $8,479,481 total is individual contributions whose employer text grouped to FIRST BOSTON CORP. Successor-firm PAC filings and later legal names are other stored strings when typed. The FEC field is not a current HR roster. Figures here are limited to that FEC string as indexed on LobbyVault.

Does this include Lehman or Salomon employees?

No. LEHMAN BROTHERS and SALOMON BROTHERS INC are separate employer strings. A receipt counted here carries the grouped text FIRST BOSTON CORP. Staff who typed only BANKER sit in that occupation-style row instead. Unitemized gifts are omitted. Coverage is itemized federal individual receipts only.

Why so many contributions from 315 donors?

The 17,129 lines include repeat gifts from the same 315 people — on the order of 54 itemized receipts per donor. Recurring itemized programs raise the line count. The FEC field is transactional, not a once-per-employee census. Coverage is itemized federal receipts only.
