Renaissance is a notoriously secretive company.

Regarding the senate hearings, they were in 2014. Only the banks involved have paid any sort of penalty. In 2016 Simons and Robert Mercer each donated over 25 million to the Democrats and Republicans respectively. So that's not a huge surprise.

The joke I heard attributed to Simons is that only the NSA has a better non-compete than RenTech.
