CME contributions received by CME Group Inc. PAC

25,923 itemized gifts totaling $3,028,369 into CME Group Inc. PAC

CME is the grouped employer or occupation key. CME GROUP INC. PAC is committee C00076299. This page is the overlap: itemized individual gifts whose field grouped to CME and whose recipient is that committee. The $3,028,369 figure is the intersection.

25,923 contributions averaging about $117 ($3,028,369 ÷ 25,923) describe a high-volume itemized book (typical of many small repeat receipts) with a $117 mean. The packet does not name the 25,923 filers or say whether they are one household repeating. A line count is a filing pattern, not a unique-donor census.

The join exists so the industry hub ($10,607,839) and the committee hub are not treated as the same list. C00076299 is the FEC committee ID on this URL. Independent expenditures stay outside $3,028,369.

CME as stored FEC employer text

CME is filer-entered text. a short exchange-operator employer string, not a NAICS commodities-exchange census. CME GROUP, CHICAGO MERCANTILE EXCHANGE, and CME GROUP INC can sit on other keys. This page does not recode a corporate family or a NAICS sector into $10,607,839.

Occupation strings without this employer key sit on occupation hubs. This URL is CME × CME Group Inc. PAC, an industry-to-committee join, not an industry-to-cycle cell. Open the CME industry hub for the $10,607,839 employer total and other committees.

CME GROUP INC. PAC (C00076299)

C00076299 is disclosed as CME GROUP INC. PAC. This page does not list independent expenditures the committee made. The $3,028,369 is CME-coded individual receipts. Other employers giving to CME Group Inc. PAC appear on the committee hub. Adding them here would break the 25,923-line filter.

25,923 lines at about $117 each describe the cell arithmetic. That mean is $3,028,369 divided by 25,923. It is not a typical gift, not a limit, and not a payroll calendar. It does not identify who directed the gifts or whether CME as an entity participated.

28.5% of the CME grouping

About 28.5% of $10,607,839 is $3,028,369 to CME Group Inc. PAC. That percentage describes overlap of two FEC groupings, not a finding that CME as an entity directed the gifts. This committee is one recipient among several that stored the same employer/industry string.

The leftover $7,579,470 (71.5% of $10,607,839) went to other committees under the same CME grouping, or sits outside this recipient filter. The CME industry hub holds that remainder. The CME GROUP INC. PAC page holds receipts whose employer field did not group to CME.

An exchange ticker is not a CFTC or Treasury award

Exchange-operator or financial-market USAspending awards, if any exist, are a different dataset. This join does not claim that $3,028,369 in itemized gifts funded federal work, or that federal work funded the gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards. Two datasets can share a name without sharing a payment trail.

Cite $3,028,369, 25,923 contributions, $10,607,839, and C00076299. Keep both sides named: CME as grouped text, CME GROUP INC. PAC as recipient. Motive is outside the packet. Unitemized gifts never appear.

Corporate treasury contributions, if any exist on other schedules, are not in these facts. Open the CME industry hub for the leftover $7,579,470 (71.5%) on other committees.
