RenaissanceRe is one of the world's largest and most successful re-insurers of natural and human-made catastrophes. Insurer RenaissanceRe Holdings Ltd RNR.N said on Monday it would buy AIG's AIG.N treaty reinsurance business, which includes Validus Reinsurance Ltd and its consolidated subsidiaries, in a deal valued at nearly $3 billion.

Rupee Ends 13 Paise Up at 95.15 After RBI Holds Repo at 5.25%: The Effect of a Weak USD, Cooler Oil
The Indian rupee settled at 95.15 against the US dollar on 5 August 2026, gaining 13 paise after the Reserve Bank of India's Monetary Policy Committee voted 6-0 to keep the repo rate unchanged at 5.25 percent for the third time in a row in FY27. The rupee had opened 46 paise higher, rallied to an intraday strongest of 94.89 ahead of the policy decision, and then drifted back as RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra noted that the currency 'has not appreciated as intended despite the high flows from foreign shores.' A weak dollar index, a sharp pullback in Brent crude from above USD 100 in July, and net FII equity inflows of Rs 2,447 crore on Tuesday combined to support the rupee. USD-INR is expected to trade in a 94.80-95.50 band in the near term.
