CanadaInnovation is Everywhere
Across all sectors, innovation is a key engine of growth that is creating long-term wealth – and it is accelerating.
Franklin Innovation Fund invests primarily in companies that leverage leading new technologies to benefit as the global economy moves toward a post-pandemic recovery. This strategy is also available as an ETF – Franklin Innovation Active ETF (TSX: FINO).
Franklin Innovation Active ETF invests substantially all of its assets in securities of Franklin Innovation Fund.
Headquartered in Silicon Valley, Franklin Templeton has a proven track record of identifying innovative companies in rapidly evolving areas of the economy such as e-commerce, cloud computing and health care. The importance of investing in innovation has only been reinforced by the coronavirus pandemic.
Key Reasons to Invest
Investing in Innovation
Innovative companies are generating growth throughout the global economy. Our mastery of the micro (e.g., the gene, atom and byte) will allow us to change the macro and pursue growth potential wherever it is found.
Active Investing
As an active manager, we are especially well placed to capture opportunities from value creation in the post-COVID economy. Our investment teams constantly research and meet with leaders of innovative companies, both public and private. For example, many exciting investment opportunities are being created by advancements in gene sequencing and editing, or the mapping of DNA for diagnostic and curative purposes.
Learn more about genomics and other big technology-enabled themes for investors in a blog by Portfolio Manager Matthew Moberg.
Innovative Environment
Franklin Templeton has been at the forefront of identifying leaders in innovation since 1968, when we launched Franklin DynaTech Fund in the United States to invest in innovative technologies.
Franklin Innovation Fund and Franklin Innovation Active ETF mirror that strategy.
