Franklin Resources Portfolio holdings
Franklin Resources is the parent of the Franklin Templeton fund brands, founded in 1947 by Rupert H. Johnson Sr., a Wall Street retail broker who named it after Benjamin Franklin. Rupert Sr.'s son Charles B. Johnson became president and chief executive in 1957, and the company went public in 1971. In 1992 Franklin bought Templeton, Galbraith & Hansberger, which was then owned by mutual fund pioneer Sir John Templeton, and in 2020 it bought Legg Mason. Its fund brands include Franklin for bond funds, Templeton for international funds and Mutual Series for value funds. Its funds include Templeton Growth, opened in 1954, Mutual Shares, opened in 1949, and Mutual Discovery, opened in 1992. It launched its first ETFs in 2013 and a bitcoin and ether ETF in 2025, and in August 2026 Franklin Resources renamed itself Franklin Templeton, Inc. to match its brand.
