Trian Partners is a multi-billion dollar asset management firm founded in 2005 by Nelson Peltz, Peter May and Edward Garden. Since its inception, Trian has solidified its place as an activist investor to watch. Its six positions disclosed in 13D filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) since July 2010 have averaged returns of 171 %, compared to 108% for the S&P 500. Those six investments: Domino's Pizza (DPZ), Wendy's (WEN), Ingersoll-Rand (IR), Ailegion PLC (ALLE), E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company (DD) and Family Dollar (FDO). Trian's executives play an activist role after investing in companies, often holding board seats and working directly with management on initiatives such as corporate restructuring or mergers. A recent example of this was when Ed Gardner joined the Family Dollar board in 2012 and played a pivotal role in the $8.5 billion merger of Family Dollar with Dollar Tree. The preceding takeover battle lasted six months, involved competing bids from Dollar Tree and Dollar General and drew in many of the world's leading activist investors, including Carl Icahn and Elliott Associates.
