Investment Banker money in the 2012 FEC cycle

Investment Banker as occupation, 2012 as cycle

Two keys define this page. One is the occupation string INVESTMENT BANKER. The other is the 2012 federal election cycle. The match is $4,367,584, built from 2,139 contributions and 1,050 unique donors. Drop either key and the number changes. A presidential-year cell at this dollar scale is a chapter of the occupation stack, not a census of Wall Street. Mean gift size here is arithmetic on the 2012 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table.

Average contribution is about $2,042; average per donor is about $4,160. Those means are arithmetic on the 2012 cell only. The packet has no median, no party split, and no employer table. About 2.0 itemized rows per donor is a filing ratio, not a headcount of unique humans behind every spelling variant.

The two-word title is not one-word BANKER

INVESTMENT BANKER is stored as a two-word occupation string. Filers who typed BANKER, FINANCIAL ANALYST, or PORTFOLIO MANAGER land on other occupation hubs. The FEC record does not verify Series licenses, deal teams, or employment at a named bank. This join cites only the INVESTMENT BANKER key matched to cycle 2012.

$30,023,152 is every cycle combined for INVESTMENT BANKER. $4,367,584 in 2012 is about 14.5% of that stack. Other windows hold about 85.5% ($25,655,568). A cycle cell at 14.5% is a chapter, not the occupation’s full FEC history. BANKER, FINANCIAL ANALYST, and PORTFOLIO MANAGER are other occupation pages if stored separately. Combining them without naming each source total mixes keys.

1,050 donors and 2,139 gifts in 2012

1,050 unique donors against 2,139 contributions implies some repeat giving inside the 2012 window. Primaries, generals, and multiple committees all add rows. One person can appear more than once if addresses or names vary. Unitemized gifts never carry an occupation code, so they never enter $4,367,584.

A title on a form is not an employment verification. People using a household occupation, a retired title, or a short status word can all land in the same cell. LobbyVault does not recode INVESTMENT BANKER into a NAICS industry or a licensing roster. Recipients of the campaign gifts live on the occupation hub and the 2012 cycle hub.

About 14.5% of a $30.0 million occupation stack

14.5% is $4,367,584 divided by $30,023,152. Reading only 2012 understates the parent occupation book. Reading only the parent hides that this cycle’s share is 14.5%. The leftover outside 2012 is $25,655,568. Those other-cycle dollars are not itemized on this relationship page.

Presidential-year and midterm windows are different FEC two-year clocks. This page cites cycle 2012 only. A later or earlier cell for the same occupation string is a different join even when the occupation total $30,023,152 is shared.

What an Investment Banker–2012 join cannot claim

Do not add this 2012 cell to a finance-industry total or to the BANKER occupation hub. Those are different keys. Campaign itemizations are not USAspending awards, and this page carries no obligation figure.

The page does not identify employers, does not convert occupation text into a corporate gift, and does not link FEC receipts to USAspending obligations. Campaign gifts and federal awards remain separate public records. Correlation between a job title and a cycle total is not causation. Cite $4,367,584, 2,139 contributions, and 1,050 donors for Investment Banker in 2012. Cite $30,023,152 for the all-cycle occupation grouping. Name FEC.gov.
