About Franklin Templeton Canada

As one of the world's largest asset managers, Franklin Templeton brings together multiple world-class investment teams in a single firm. Since opening our first Canadian office in 1954, we have been committed to one goal: delivering exceptional asset management services to Canadian investors. Our global investment teams bring specialist expertise across diverse asset classes and serve institutional, retail, and high-net-worth clients. We are driven by a determination to constantly achieve more, to improve, outdo and excel. 

We bring together specialist investment managers with distinct styles to offer clients a full range of capabilities, from traditional to alternative investments. Each manager follows a well-defined investment process rooted in the discipline, rigor and experience gained over decades of successfully navigating global markets—and underpinned by robust risk management protocols at the portfolio and enterprise levels.
