We are diverse

Our diversity stems from our ability to offer five distinct, world-class investment management groups: Franklin, Templeton, Mutual Series, Bissett (in Canada) and Fiduciary Trust.

We're also a leader in global investing not only because we've followed the footsteps of Sir John Templeton, a pioneer of the concept of investing globally, but also because we have established our presence around the world. This diversity helps us better service our clients no matter where they reside.

These philosophies are embraced and delivered by over 6,500 employees who continue to contribute diverse talents, extraordinary expertise and unique perspectives to the organization.
