Investment Banking political contributions from Connecticut

Investment Banking plus Connecticut

Occupation INVESTMENT BANKING and donor state CT together produce $465,427, 376 contributions, and 59 donors. The occupation nationwide is $6,137,543, 15,820 contributions, and 1,044 donors. Connecticut holds about 7.6% of Investment Banking-coded dollars, about 2.4% of Investment Banking-coded contribution rows, and about 5.7% of Investment Banking-coded donors.

Dollar share (about 7.6%) outruns row share (about 2.4%). Connecticut’s Investment Banking join is dollar-thicker than its share of national line volume. A Private Equity–Connecticut join, if published, uses a different occupation string and must not be added to $465,427.

Fifty-nine Connecticut donors and 376 contribution rows produced $465,427 under INVESTMENT BANKING. The occupation side is $6,137,543, 15,820 contributions, and 1,044 donors. About 7.6% of dollars from about 2.4% of rows is a money-thick, line-thin cut. BANKING without INVESTMENT is a different string. PRIVATE EQUITY is another. The 376 Connecticut rows do not identify banks, desks, or recipient committees.

INVESTMENT BANKING as a national label

INVESTMENT BANKING is an industry phrase used as a job title. BANKING, INVESTMENT BANKER, and FINANCIAL ANALYST are other pages. The national totals—$6,137,543 from 1,044 donors and 15,820 contributions—are the labeled set, not a FINRA roster.

Fifteen thousand eight hundred twenty contribution rows from 1,044 donors imply repeat itemized giving nationally. Connecticut’s 376 rows from 59 donors are a small piece of that line volume and a larger piece of the dollars.

Fifty-nine Connecticut donors

Fifty-nine Connecticut donors produced 376 contributions totaling $465,427. Other Connecticut occupations are excluded. Investment Banking receipts from other states fill the remainder of $6,137,543.

CT is the contributor state. It does not prove a Greenwich or Stamford desk, and it does not prove Connecticut federal candidates received the $465,427. Recipient geography is not this filter.

Connecticut’s 59 Investment Banking-coded donors and 376 contributions sit inside 1,044 national donors and 15,820 national contributions. The $465,427 is not BANKING without INVESTMENT.

Do not stack Connecticut finance titles

Private Equity, Financial Analyst, and Investment Banking can all appear with a Connecticut donor-state code. Each occupation has its own national ceiling—here $6,137,543—and its own state intersection. Adding them invents a sector total the FEC occupation field does not define.

This file’s facts are $465,427, 376 contributions, 59 donors against $6,137,543, 15,820 contributions, 1,044 donors.

Itemized receipts versus a finance-sector story

Connecticut’s $465,427 from 59 donors and 376 contributions is the INVESTMENT BANKING string plus CT, nothing else. BANKING, PRIVATE EQUITY, and FINANCIAL ANALYST each have their own national ceilings and, where published, their own Connecticut joins. Stacking those pages would count different occupation columns as if they were one industry. They are not.

The occupation nationwide is $6,137,543, 15,820 contributions, and 1,044 donors. Connecticut’s 376 of 15,820 rows (about 2.4%) against 7.6% of dollars is the join’s distinctive shape: fewer lines than money, relative to the national mix. That can happen when itemized amounts on the Connecticut-coded rows run larger than on rows coded elsewhere. It can also happen if other states contribute many small itemized lines. The packet does not decide which.

Committees that received the 376 gifts are not listed here. Neither are employers. The Investment Banking occupation hub holds the $6,137,543 series. Connecticut campaign finance holds every occupation coded to CT. All occupations and all FEC ties place this pair among other two-field matches without restating it.

What the join excludes

This page does not say investment banks fund Connecticut elections, and it does not equate FEC donations with federal awards. Two columns matched. Correlation is not causation.

Unitemized gifts and independent expenditures are omitted. See Investment Banking donations, Connecticut campaign finance, all occupations, and all FEC ties.
