Investment Management occupation string × 2014 FEC cycle

Occupation string plus FEC cycle, not a new dataset

$1.2 million is the rounded form of $1,235,254 for Investment Management in 2014. Use the exact dollar figure in a table. Use the rounded form only as a headline. 316 contribution lines and 177 donors stay attached to the same filter. Dropping either count turns a join into a slogan.

The occupation total $11,262,515 answers a different question: how much the string INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT sums to on the whole extract. 2014 is one slice (11.0%). Investment Management donations holds that all-cycle view. 2014 election cycle holds every occupation in 2014. All FEC ties lists other slices. All occupations lists other strings.

How INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT sits among other occupation keys

The occupation-wide total for INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT on this extract is $11,262,515 ($11.3 million). That figure includes every indexed cycle for the same string, not only 2014. $1,235,254 is the 2014 slice (11.0%). INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT is a function string, often used like a title. It is distinct from INVESTMENT MANAGER, PORTFOLIO MANAGER, and INVESTMENTS. The join does not treat it as a firm roster or a NAICS securities total.

The occupation hub answers “how much did this string give across the extract?” This ties page answers “how much of that string sits in 2014?” Mixing the answers produces a false third number. Keep $11,262,515 on the occupation sentence and $1,235,254 on the cycle sentence.

Reading the 2014 cycle hub next to this cell

The 2014 value is the FEC two-year election cycle that closes on the 2014 federal election calendar. It is a reporting window on individual contribution records, not a single Election Day total and not a count of offices on the ballot. Receipts dated inside that cycle window stay here; receipts dated in another even-year cycle sit on that other join. Inside that window, Investment Management accounts for $1,235,254 on 316 contributions from 177 donors.

Other even-year joins for the same occupation are separate pages. This file cites only 2014. Naming another cycle’s dollars here would invent a fact the packet does not contain. Use all FEC ties to find sibling occupation–cycle pages without copying their totals into this cell.

What repeat gifts do to the 2014 line count

316 contributions and 177 donors describe different units. A row is an itemized receipt line. A donor is a unique person inside this occupation–cycle filter as LobbyVault matches names. 316 divided by 177 is the mean lines per donor in this cell; $1,235,254 divided by 177 is about $6,979 per donor; $1,235,254 divided by 316 is about $3,909 per line. Means are not medians. Large gifts pull the mean up. The packet does not publish a median.

Unitemized gifts are absent. Small donors who never crossed the itemization threshold cannot appear in 316 or 177. $1,235,254 is therefore a floor on disclosed itemized dollars for this string in 2014, not a complete accounting of every federal gift by people who hold the job.

A complete citation names occupation INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, cycle 2014, dollars $1,235,254, contribution lines 316, and unique donors 177. Omitting the occupation string makes the cycle look occupation-wide. Omitting the cycle makes the occupation hub look like a single-year figure. Omitting the donor count invites a reader to treat 316 as people. Keep all five tokens.

Keeping Investment Management and 2014 on separate nouns

This page is not a claim that donations fund federal spending. FEC individual contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets. The join here is occupation × cycle inside FEC.gov only. It is not a ranking of occupations, not medical or political advice, and not a statement that Investment Management as a profession acted in concert in 2014.

The 11.0% share is only $1,235,254 / $11,262,515. It is not a share of GDP, of industry receipts, or of all 2014 itemized gifts. Using it as a political-weight score would be invention. Leave it as a slice of one occupation string.

Investment Management donations is the all-cycle table for this string. 2014 election cycle is the all-occupation table for 2014. All occupations is the string inventory. All FEC ties is the join inventory. None of those pages authorizes adding $1,235,254 to a USAspending obligation total or ranking Investment Management as more influential than another title.

Questions

What is the 2014 total for occupation INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT?

Itemized individual contributions with occupation INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT total $1,235,254 in the 2014 FEC cycle. LobbyVault counts 316 contributions and 177 unique donors in that cell. The occupation-wide total for the same string on this extract is $11,262,515, so 2014 is 11.0% of that roll-up. Figures come from FEC.gov aggregates. Labels are filer-entered.

Does the 2014 figure include every cycle for Investment Management?

No. $1,235,254 is the 2014 slice only. The occupation hub still shows $11,262,515 across the extract. This page is a join: occupation string plus even-year cycle. It is not a restatement of Investment Management donations and not a restatement of 2014 election cycle. Adding other cycles here would invent dollars the packet does not list.

Are 316 contributions the same as unique people?

The join lists 177 unique donors and 316 contribution lines for INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT in 2014. A person can give more than once, so lines exceed donors. About $6,979 per donor and $3,909 per line are means from $1,235,254, not medians and not typical gifts. Name matching can split or merge people. This is not a job-census headcount.

Are similar occupation strings merged into INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT?

No. The filter is the exact occupation string INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT as filers typed it. Nearby titles stay on other keys listed under all occupations. The string is not a NAICS code, not a BLS occupation, and not a PAC. See Investment Management donations for this key’s all-cycle table and all FEC ties for other joins. Cite FEC.gov.
