The Renaissance Technologies employer grouping records $2,708,450 in itemized individual contributions for the 2014 FEC cycle. Fifty-four contribution lines from seven donors make up that midterm cell. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $16,044,442, so 2014 is 16.9% of the key. This is the same named-fund string as the 2012 Renaissance Technologies join, with a different cycle total and a different donor count.

Key figures

  • $2,708,450 tagged Renaissance Technologies in the 2014 FEC cycle.
  • 54 contributions from 7 donors; about $50,156 per contribution.
  • 2014 is 16.9% of the grouping’s $16,044,442 all-cycle total.
  • Midterm cut of a named-fund key, not an occupation total.
  • Source: FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates.

Seven donors, more lines than 2012’s shape

Seven keys and 54 lines average about 7.7 receipts per donor—higher lines-per-person than a simple three-committee pattern. Average line size is about $50,156. Average per donor is about $386,921. Those 2014 ratios are this packet’s facts only. The 2012 join used 9 donors and 35 lines; that is a different file. Do not blend the two cycle counts into one sentence of official numbers on this page.

The $2,708,450 remains individual receipts tagged to this employer string. It is not fund performance and not a PAC.

The 2014 Renaissance Technologies cell is $2,708,450 on 54 lines from 7 donors, 16.9% of the same $16,044,442 industry total used on the 2012 page. Seven keys and about 7.7 lines each is a denser lines-per-donor pattern than 2012’s 35-and-9 shape, but this file does not import 2012’s cycle dollars as facts. Official 2014 numbers are $2,708,450, 54, 7, and the shared lifetime roll. Average line size about $50,156 is this packet’s arithmetic only.

16.9% of the same $16.0 million roll

Both Renaissance Technologies cycle pages share the industry total $16,044,442. 2014’s $2,708,450 is 16.9% of that roll. A midterm taking about one-sixth of the key is a substantial slice. Adding 2012 and 2014 cells would still leave other years inside the $16,044,442. This file does not perform that addition with 2012’s dollars, because 2012’s cycle total is not a fact in this packet.

The industry hub is the year index. This tie isolates 2014.
