TOKYO--(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.

Stocks surge, euro steady after US-EU trade agreement
Global stocks rose and the euro appreciated on Monday after a trade agreement between the United States and the EU lifted sentiment and provided some clarity in a week of key policy meetings by the Federal Reserve and the Bank of Japan. The US struck a framework trade agreement with the European Union, imposing a 15% import tariff on most EU goods – half the threatened rate, a week after agreeing to a similar trade deal with Japan. Countries are scrambling to finalise trade deals ahead of an August 1 deadline set by US President Donald Trump, with talks between the US and China set for Monday in Stockholm amid expectations of another 90-day extension to the truce between the world's top two economies. 3 President Donald Trump (R) shakes hands with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen (L) following their meeting, in Turnberry, south west Scotland on July 27, 2025. AFP via Getty Images 'A 15% tariff on European goods, forced purchases of US energy and military equipment and zero tariff retaliation by Europe, that's not negotiation, that's the art of the deal,' said Prashant Newnaha, senior Asia-Pacific rates strategist at TD Securities. 'A big win for the US.' European futures surged more than 1%, while S&P 500 futures rose 0.5% and Nasdaq futures advanced 0.6%. The euro strengthened across the board, rising against the dollar, sterling and yen. 'We have to be a bit cautious from here,' said Sim Moh Siong, currency strategist at Bank of Singapore, of the broader risk-on rally. 'A lot of good news is already in the price.' MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan was up 0.32%, just shy of the almost four-year high it touched last week. Japan's Nikkei fell 1% after hitting a one-year high last week. While the baseline 15% tariff will still be seen by many in Europe as too high, compared with Europe's initial hopes to secure a zero-for-zero tariff deal, it is better than the threatened 30% rate. 3 Currency traders work near a screen showing the Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) and the foreign exchange rate between US dollar and South Korean won, right, at the foreign exchange dealing room of the Hana Bank headquarters in Seoul, South Korea, Monday, July 28, 2025. AP The US-EU deal provides clarity to companies and averts a bigger trade war between the two allies that account for almost a third of global trade. 'A major tail-risk has now been defused,' said Marc Velan, head of investments at Lucerne Asset Management in Singapore. 'Markets are interpreting this as a sign of stability and predictability returning to trade policy,' he added. 'The China delay fits the same pattern: the administration is opting for controlled diplomacy over confrontation.' 3 The US struck a framework trade agreement with the European Union, imposing a 15% import tariff on most EU goods – half the threatened rate, a week after agreeing to a similar trade deal with Japan. AP Gains for China's blue-chip stocks petered out towards the midday break, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng index gained 0.5%. The Australian dollar , often seen as a proxy for risk appetite, was at $0.657, hovering around the near eight-month peak scaled last week. FED, BOJ AWAIT In an action-packed week, investors will watch out for the monetary policy meetings from the Fed and the BOJ as well as the monthly US employment report and earnings from megacap companies Apple, Microsoft and Amazon. While the Fed and the BOJ are expected to maintain rates, comments from the officials will be crucial for investors to gauge the interest rate path. The trade deal with Japan has opened the door for the BOJ to raise rates again this year. Meanwhile, the Fed is likely to be cautious on any rate cuts as officials seek more data to determine tariffs' impact on inflation before they ease rates further. But tensions between the White House and the central bank over monetary policy have increased, with Trump repeatedly lashing out at Fed Chair Jerome Powell for not cutting rates. Two of the Fed Board's Trump appointees have articulated reasons for supporting a rate cut this month. In commodities, oil prices rose after the US-EU trade agreement. Brent crude futures and US West Texas Intermediate crude both rose 0.5%. Gold prices fell on Monday to their lowest in nearly two weeks on reduced appetite for safe havens.

Claude Cohen: The Vision Behind Monaco's Luxurious Precision
Monaco, July 2025 — In the opulent cityscape of Monaco, where prestige meets precision, one name continues to echo in both the world of luxury auctions and elite property development: Claude Cohen. Best known for his leadership at Monaco Legend Group, Cohen's lesser known yet equally influential venture, Batilux, plays a central role in shaping the physical elegance of the Principality. From Collector's Gavel to Construction Blueprint Cohen's professional trajectory is as diverse as it is ambitious. While many recognize him for revolutionizing the collectible watch auction market through Monaco Legend Group, his impact extends well beyond the walls of the auction house. With Batilux, a high-end construction and renovation firm headquartered in Monaco, the Italian Claude Cohen has ventured into the meticulous world of architectural refinement. The company specializes in luxury residential projects, transforming historic buildings and prime real estate into modern, bespoke living spaces designed for Monaco's discerning clientele. The Philosophy Behind Batilux Batilux is not simply a construction company; it is a curator of lifestyle. Under Cohen's direction, the company merges form and function, infusing timeless design with cutting-edge technology. Each project is approached with the same attention to detail that Cohen brings to the auction floor—every material, finish, and spatial decision reflects an uncompromising standard of excellence. According to sources close to the company, Batilux operates with a streamlined model: manage fewer projects, but delivers at an unmatched level of quality. The result is a portfolio of luxury residences that not only reflect Monaco's refined aesthetic but also offer long-term value in one of the world's most exclusive property markets. A Monaco-Based Legacy Claude Cohen's decision to root his ventures in Monaco is no coincidence. The Principality, with its favorable fiscal environment, international client base, and cultural emphasis on discretion and luxury, aligns perfectly with Cohen's business ethos. Beyond real estate, his involvement in Monaco's economic and cultural fabric is extensive. Through both Monaco Legend Group and Batilux, he supports a growing ecosystem of artisans, architects, designers, and international investors who are helping to evolve the city's visual identity. Leadership Under the Spotlight Cohen's entrepreneurial ventures haven't escaped the glare of scrutiny. Like many high-profile business leaders operating across finance and real estate, questions have occasionally surfaced regarding past offshore corporate practices—commonplace in Monaco prior to modern transparency reforms. Yet, Cohen has consistently emphasized his commitment to operating within the legal frameworks of the Principality. Over the past decade, he has restructured his businesses to reflect current financial and regulatory standards, further reinforcing Monaco's position as a global hub of trust and luxury. Looking Ahead As Monaco continues to evolve, so does Claude Cohen's role within it. Batilux, with its emphasis on innovation, sustainability, and exclusivity, is positioned not just as a builder of homes—but as a shaper of Monaco's future skyline. Whether through rare timepieces that pass under his auction gavel or penthouses rebuilt by his team, Cohen's influence in the Principality is tangible, lasting, and reflective of a deeper vision: one where legacy is built brick by brick, auction by auction.
