(Reuters) – Unilever named activist investor Nelson Peltz as a new board member on Tuesday after his Trian Fund Management disclosed a 1.5% stake in the consumer goods giant.
Unilever said it had held “extensive and constructive discussions” with Peltz, who will join as a non-executive director from July.
