History
editTrilantic was spun out from Lehman Brothers Merchant Banking (LBMB), in 2009,[9] by five founding partners, each of whom had workers at LBMB,[10][11] which had been founded as the private equity arm of Lehman Brothers, in 1986, during the 1980s leveraged buyout boom.[12] In April 2009, Trilantic acquired LBMB out of the bankruptcy estate of Lehman Brothers with the support of Reinet Investments S.C.A, a Luxembourg securitization vehicle controlled by the Rupert family and listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.[13] On May 11, 2022, it was announced that Trilantic Europe is buying the polling company Kantar Public (previously part of the Kantar Group) in the third quarter of 2022.[14] Kantar Public subsequently rebranded as Verian.[15][16]
