Investment Banker political contributions from Illinois

Investment Banker and Illinois as overlapping FEC fields

Occupation INVESTMENT BANKER and donor state IL produce $1,316,074, 1,101 contributions, and 194 donors. The occupation hub is $30,023,152, 31,912 contributions, and 3,779 donors. Illinois’s dollar share is about 4.4%; contribution share about 3.5% (1,101 of 31,912); donor share about 5.1% (194 of 3,779). One hundred ninety-four Illinois donors are about 5.1% of 3,779 national donors; 1,101 contributions are about 3.4% of 31,912 national rows; dollars are about 4.4% of $30,023,152.

BANKER, MANAGING DIRECTOR, and FINANCE, if used, sit in other hubs and should not be added to this Investment Banker total. Do not stack INVESTMENT BANKER with BANKER or MANAGING DIRECTOR into a single Illinois professional total. Those are other occupation strings with other hubs.

194 Illinois donors produced 1,101 contributions, about 5.7 itemized rows per donor in this join, versus about 8.4 rows per donor nationally (31,912 contributions from 3,779 donors). The arithmetic mean gift in this Illinois cell is about $1,195, against about $941 nationwide. Illinois’s about 4.4% share of $30,023,152 from 194 people is a many-person finance-title slice, not a deal-tombstone census.

INVESTMENT BANKER as a two-word finance title

INVESTMENT BANKER is a filer-entered string. The FEC file does not verify a Series license, a bank name, or an advisory versus markets seat. The two words on the form are the filter. The $30,023,152 national total is INVESTMENT BANKER only. 3,779 donors produced 31,912 contributions in that occupation bucket.

This page does not split those 31,912 rows by cycle, employer, or recipient. It locates how much of the labeled money is also coded to Illinois (IL). Three thousand seven hundred seventy-nine national donors make this a mid-size occupation. This tie asks how much of that labeled money also carries donor state IL.

Illinois on the state side

194 Illinois donors produced 1,101 contributions totaling $1,316,074. Donor state IL is the address on the record, not proof of a Illinois license, and not a limit to Illinois candidates. IL is the address on the itemized record, not proof of a Chicago desk, and not a map of which campaigns received the $1,316,074.

The Illinois campaign-finance hub includes every occupation coded to IL. This join is only INVESTMENT BANKER. The Investment Banker occupation hub without Illinois still holds about 95.6% of the $30,023,152. Illinois’s state hub includes every other occupation coded to IL. INVESTMENT BANKER is only this filter.

What the join is not

This page does not count licensed bankers, merge the BANKER hub, or claim that Investment Banker-coded money caused any electoral result. Occupation plus state is a bookkeeping join. Correlation is not causation. INVESTMENT BANKER is not INVESTMENT MANAGER even when filers meant a related finance job.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. FEC.gov is the source. Occupation labels are filer-entered. INVESTMENT BANKER is not a FINRA extract. Donor state IL is not recipient geography. Itemized individual contributions only. CRD numbers are not in these six numbers.

Three numbers, two fields, one Investment Banker filter

Subtract the Illinois dollars on this page from the national INVESTMENT BANKER occupation total and the difference is the amount still coded INVESTMENT BANKER in every other state combined. That remainder ($28,707,078) has no row-by-row breakdown here because those states are other ties. The occupation internal link holds the unlabeled-by-state total; the state internal link holds every occupation with this state code; the occupations index and the ties index place this pair among other joins built the same way.

A unique-donor count of 194 is not a person-level audit. The FEC aggregate can merge similar names or split one person who filed under variants. A contribution count of 1,101 can be many small itemized rows. A dollar total of $1,316,074 can hide that skew. Keeping all three figures on the same page is the point of the join: quoting only the Illinois dollars, or only the INVESTMENT BANKER national total, drops a key. One hundred ninety-four donors producing 1,101 contributions is the fact to keep next to the $1,316,074 headline.
