The Morgan Stanley employer grouping records $2,065,553 in itemized individual contributions for the 2012 FEC cycle. One thousand one hundred twenty-three contribution lines from 535 donors make up that presidential-year cell. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $18,776,463, so 2012 is 11.0% of the key. This is a named bank-employer string, not a Wall Street sector total and not the Goldman Sachs join.

Key figures

  • $2,065,553 tagged Morgan Stanley in the 2012 FEC cycle.
  • 1,123 contributions from 535 donors; about $1,839 per contribution.
  • 2012 is 11.0% of the grouping’s $18,776,463 all-cycle total.
  • Named bank key, not a Wall Street sector or PAC total.
  • Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates.

A wide employee-style pattern at a smaller dollar cell

Five hundred thirty-five donor keys and 1,123 lines average about 2.1 receipts per donor—fewer repeat lines than some occupation keys. Average line size is about $1,839. Average per donor is about $3,861. The dollar cell $2,065,553 is smaller than Goldman Sachs’s 2012 cell on that firm’s own page; those are different keys and must not be added together on this page as a combined “banks in 2012” fact.

Employer remains self-reported. Current staff, alumni, and stale fields can appear. 535 is not payroll headcount.

Bank-name keys can look alike until donor counts appear. Morgan Stanley × 2012 = $2,065,553 on 1,123 lines from 535 donors, 11.0% of $18,776,463. Five hundred thirty-five keys and about 2.1 lines each is a broad employee-style presidential pattern. Goldman Sachs 2012 is a different key with different cycle dollars on its own page. Do not add those cells here. PAC disbursements are not in the $2,065,553. Average line size about $1,839 describes this string in 2012.

11.0% of the Morgan Stanley roll

Eighteen million seven hundred seventy-six thousand four hundred sixty-three dollars is the grouping across all cycles. $2,065,553 is 11.0% of that. A presidential year taking about one-ninth of the key is a substantial slice without being the lifetime figure. Other years hold the remaining 89.0%.

The industry hub is the year index. This tie keeps 2012 visible with the 535-donor shape attached.
