Investment Banker political contributions in the 2014 FEC cycle

Investment Banker receipts isolated to 2014

Two FEC dimensions meet here: occupation INVESTMENT BANKER and the 2014 election cycle. The intersection is $2,561,234 ($2.6 million), 1,384 contributions, and 536 donors. 8.5% of Investment Banker occupation dollars ($30,023,152) fall in 2014.

The 2014 cycle is an even-year FEC window, a midterm-year cycle in federal itemized receipts. This page does not add 2012 presidential-year dollars into the 2014 total. INVESTMENT BANKER is the occupation string. BANKER without the modifier is a different page. Firm PACs and bundling committees are not merged here. The join does not verify Series registrations or current desk assignment.

$30,023,152 is the Investment Banker all-cycle total

On the occupation side, $30,023,152 is the Investment Banker total across cycles. Sibling labels (BANKER, INVESTMENTS, and FINANCIAL ADVISOR) stay on other pages. Investment Banker is not a bulge-bracket headcount, a FINRA census, or a bank PAC.

All occupations lists other titles without adding them to $30,023,152. The Investment Banker donations page holds the all-cycle occupation table that $2,561,234 is a slice of.

2014 cycle dollars versus the Investment Banker occupation total

The 2014 election cycle hub holds itemized individual receipts for every occupation coded to that even-year window. This tie keeps only Investment Banker. $2,561,234 is therefore not a cycle-wide total. FEC.gov labels this even-year federal window 2014. It is not a 2012 presidential-year filter or a 2010 midterm-year filter.

1,384 contributions from 536 donors means repeated itemization is common in this cycle filter, not a one-gift-per-person table. The page does not publish an average gift. $2,561,234, 1,384, and 536 are the three cycle-side facts. Unitemized federal gifts never enter $2,561,234. Committee disbursements and independent expenditures are a different FEC schedule and are not a second way to count $2,561,234. Three numbers define the Investment Banker × 2014 cell: dollars $2,561,234, contribution rows 1,384, unique donors 536. Share of occupation dollars is 8.5% of $30,023,152.

Public-record limits for Investment Banker in 2014

Matching Investment Banker with 2014 does not measure influence, does not assign party, and does not say Investment Banker donors caused an electoral result. Correlation between an occupation string and a cycle is not causation. The table is also not a bulge-bracket headcount, a FINRA census, or a bank PAC.

Itemized individual contributions from FEC.gov only. Independent expenditures, unitemized gifts, and state-office campaigns are excluded. Occupation labels are filer-entered. INVESTMENT BANKER is the occupation string. BANKER without the modifier is a different page. Firm PACs and bundling committees are not merged here. The join does not verify Series registrations or current desk assignment. This join does not publish a party split, a recipient-committee list, or employer text. If a reader only needs the occupation, the Investment Banker donations hub is $30,023,152; the 2014 election cycle hub is the even-year inventory across titles. Do not add those hubs together.

Linked Investment Banker and 2014 pages

Investment Banker donations holds the $30,023,152 occupation total. The 2014 election cycle page holds every occupation in that window, not only Investment Banker. All occupations places INVESTMENT BANKER beside other titles without merging sibling strings (BANKER, INVESTMENTS, and FINANCIAL ADVISOR). All FEC ties lists other occupation-cycle pairs so $2,561,234 is not added to a different year.

Use the occupation hub for all-cycle Investment Banker dollars ($30,023,152). Use the 2014 cycle hub for the even-year window across titles. Use this tie for the intersection only: $2,561,234, 1,384 contributions, 536 donors, 8.5% of occupation dollars. Those four internal links are the only hrefs this copy may use: Investment Banker donations, the 2014 election cycle, all occupations, and all FEC ties. Keep INVESTMENT BANKER as the occupation key and 2014 as the cycle key when joining files. FEC.gov remains the controlling source if a later extract disagrees with $2,561,234.

Investment Banker 2014 versus other LobbyVault cuts

Occupation-by-state joins for Investment Banker are different pages and different dollars. This tie is occupation-by-cycle. $2,561,234 is not a state total and not a committee total.

All FEC ties is the inventory for those other pairs. All occupations is the inventory for titles. Neither page should be summed into $2,561,234. Sibling strings (BANKER, INVESTMENTS, and FINANCIAL ADVISOR) remain outside $2,561,234. Independent expenditures remain outside $2,561,234.
