Renaissance Technologies Corp and the 2012 FEC cycle

$1,697,100 in itemized individual contributions is the 2012-cycle join for the Renaissance Technologies Corp employer grouping. Two donors and 16 contributions produced that sum on FEC.gov individual records. The grouping’s all-cycle total is $18,544,108, so 2012 holds about 9.2% of the lifetime bucket — a concentrated hedge-fund employer string, not a fund-level political account.

  • 16 contributions from 2 donors concentrate the cell.

Renaissance Technologies Corp meeting 2012

The employer hub stacks every cycle for Renaissance Technologies Corp. The 2012 cycle hub stacks every employer. This relationship page keeps the overlap: $1,697,100. Sixteen itemized gifts from two unique donors produced it. That is a two-key filter, not a finding that the firm directed the gifts.

Average contribution is about $106,069; average per donor is about $848,550. Those ratios describe a very small set of large itemized receipts. With only two donor keys, the cell is concentrated even though it is not a one-donor page.

Employer text is self-reported. Abbreviations such as RenTech or Renaissance Technologies may or may not sit in this same bucket depending on grouping.

Nine percent of an $18.5 million grouping

$18,544,108 is every cycle combined. $1,697,100 in 2012 is about 9.2% of that stack. Other windows still hold about 91%. A presidential-year cell near 9% is a substantial chapter for this employer string, not a majority of the lifetime total.

Lifetime scale this large, paired with a 2012 donor count of two, is consistent with a small number of people appearing across many cycles. This packet does not list those other years.

Two donors, 16 contributions

A 16-to-2 ratio means repeated itemized activity. Joint fundraising, multiple committees, and both years of the cycle all add rows while the unique-donor count stays at two.

Individual receipts remain personal gifts tagged with an employer string. They are not the same as a management-company PAC or a super PAC financed by a fund.

2012 as the cycle filter

2012 covers federal activity in 2011–2012. Renaissance Technologies Corp’s $1,697,100 is one employer slice of that window. Ranking employer cells as influence would add a claim the individual-contribution file does not carry.

Presidential years raise national itemized totals. That seasonal fact does not assign a reason to these two donors.

Two keys, large checks, and a 9% chapter

Quantitative-fund employer strings often concentrate FEC individual money among very few people. Renaissance Technologies Corp in 2012 is that pattern: $1,697,100, 16 gifts, two unique-donor keys. Average gift size near $106,069 is a ratio, not a typical employee contribution and not a fund-level political account.

A 9.2% share of $18,544,108 is a substantial presidential-year chapter. Other cycles still hold about 91% of the lifetime bucket. Two donor keys means the cell is concentrated without being a one-donor page. Shared grouping across years is not shared identity; this packet does not list other cycles’ amounts.

Abbreviations such as RenTech may or may not sit in this bucket. Party and candidate live on the overlay. Super PAC independent expenditures are a different FEC form family. USAspending awards are a different ledger entirely.

Two unique-donor keys and 16 contributions produced $1,697,100. That is a concentrated presidential-year cell with average gift size near $106,069. A 9.2% share of $18,544,108 leaves most of the grouping in other cycles. Fund-level political accounts and super PAC independent expenditures are other FEC form families. This join is individual receipts tagged with an employer string.

Abbreviations and related legal names may sit in other buckets. This page is Renaissance Technologies Corp only. Party and candidate are overlay fields. Quantitative-trading narratives, Medallion-style lore, and personnel lists are not in these facts. USAspending matching still needs a vendor identifier the occupation/employer grouping does not provide.

Sixteen contributions from two unique-donor keys can span 2011, 2012, and several committees without becoming a Renaissance Technologies Corp workforce. $1,697,100 and a 9.2% share of $18,544,108 are the published join facts. The overlay is the short list. Other cycles live on the industry hub as the remainder of that lifetime total.

What the employer-cycle join is not

The page does not identify funds, strategies, or counterparties. It does not show party. It does not link FEC gifts to USAspending awards. Campaign receipts and federal obligations remain separate ledgers.

Receipts are on the Renaissance Technologies Corp 2012 overlay. Other years are on the industry hub. Other 2012 employers are on the cycle hub. Other joins are on the ties index.
