Mitsubishi Electric to Transfer Shares of Insurance Subsidiary to Marsh Japan

Yahoo7 days ago
TOKYO, July 28, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that it has concluded a share transfer agreement under which it will transfer shares of its Tokyo-based subsidiary Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service Co., Ltd. to Marsh Japan, Inc. on November 4.
Since its establishment in 1999 as an insurance agency for the Mitsubishi Electric Group, Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service has supported the growth of companies and the life plans of individuals. Marsh Japan, which provides services and solutions to companies of all sizes across Japan, was founded in 1955 as a Japanese subsidiary of Marsh LLC, a world-leading insurance broker and risk advisor owned by Marsh McLennan (NYSE: MMC).
Mitsubishi Electric has been assessing the significance of the insurance business in its portfolio, aiming to further strengthen the company's overall business structure. Considering the evolving business environment for insurance agencies in Japan, Mitsubishi Electric determined having Mitsubishi Electric Insurance Service teamed up with Marsh Japan would best position the company for long-term growth supported by Marsh LLC's global insurance expertise.
The impact of the transaction on Mitsubishi Electric's consolidated financial results is not included in its financial forecast for the fiscal year ending March 2026, announced on April 28, 2025, but it is expected to be minor. If there is any significant change, updates will be announced promptly as required.

Gold succumbs to profit-taking after US jobs data-fuelled rally

By Anushree Mukherjee and Brijesh Patel (Reuters) -Gold prices slipped on Monday as investors booked profits after a sharp rise in the previous session following weaker-than-expected U.S. jobs data that boosted expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut in September. Spot gold lost 0.3% to $3,354.17 per ounce as of 0229 GMT. Bullion had risen more than 2% on Friday. However, U.S. gold futures gained 0.2% to $3,407.10. "Gold has made a conservative start to the week following Friday's price jump. A combination of profit taking and dollar stabilisation has caused gold to ease marginally to kick-off the week," KCM Trade Chief Market Analyst Tim Waterer said. Asian markets tracked Wall Street lower as fears for the U.S. economy returned with a vengeance, prompting investors to price in an almost certain rate cut in September and undermining the dollar. [MKTS/GLOB] Last week, U.S. job growth slowed more than expected in July, with nonfarm payrolls increasing by 73,000 jobs last month, after rising by a downwardly revised 14,000 in June, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said. This revived hopes of a Fed rate cut in September, with markets now pricing in an 81% chance, per CME FedWatch tool. The tariffs U.S. President Donald Trump imposed last week on scores of countries are likely to stay in place rather than be cut as part of continuing negotiations, Trade Representative Jamieson Greer said in comments aired on Sunday. "But with Trump on the tariff warpath once again, and the soft U.S. jobs report increasing the odds that we could see a September FOMC rate cut, any pullbacks in the precious metal could be of a shallow nature," Waterer added. Gold, traditionally considered a safe-haven asset during political and economic uncertainties, tends to thrive in a low-interest-rate environment. Spot silver fell 0.6% to $36.80 per ounce, platinum slipped 0.6% to $1,307.02 and palladium eased 0.9% to $1,197.76.

Japan Yields Slip, Casting Doubts on 10-Year Bond Auction Demand

Japan's government bond yields fell on Monday morning following a weaker-than-expected US employment report, raising concerns about demand at a 10-year debt sale on Tuesday. The 5-year yield dropped as much as 9 basis points to 0.99% and the 10-year rate was down 8.5 basis points to a low of 1.465%. The moves come after US Treasuries surged on Friday as a surprisingly soft payroll report saw traders ramp up their bets on Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts this year.
