Founding Funds Strategy

Franklin Templeton Investments


Gain From Our Perspective

Franklin Templetons distinct multi-manager structure combines the specialized expertise of three world-class investment management groupsFranklin, Templeton and Mutual Series.

Specialized Expertise
Each of our portfolio management groups operates autonomously, relying on its own research and staying true to the unique investment disciplines that underlie its success. Franklin. Founded in 1947, Franklin is a recognized leader in xed income investing and also brings expertise in growth- and value-style U.S. equity investing. Templeton. Founded in 1940, Templeton pioneered international investing and, in 1954, launched what has become the industrys oldest global fund. Today, with ofces in over 25 countries, Templeton offers investors a truly global perspective. Mutual Series. Founded in 1949, Mutual Series is dedicated to a unique style of value investing, searching aggressively for opportunity among what it believes are undervalued stocks, as well as arbitrage situations and distressed securities.

True Diversication
Because our management groups work independently and adhere to different investment approaches, Franklin, Templeton and Mutual Series funds typically have distinct portfolios. Thats why our funds can be used to build truly diversied allocation plans covering every major asset class.

Reliability You Can Trust


At Franklin Templeton Investments, we seek to consistently provide investors with exceptional risk-adjusted returns over the long term, as well as the reliable, accurate and personal service that has helped us become one of the most trusted names in nancial services.

A Few Words about Risk Stocks have historically outperformed other asset classes over the long term, but tend to fluctuate
more dramatically over the short term. Bonds are affected by changes in interest rates and the creditworthiness of their issuers. Bonds are particularly sensitive to interest rate movements; bond prices and thus the share prices of bond funds, generally move in the opposite direction from interest rates. Thus, as the prices of bonds in a fund adjust to a rise in interest rates, the funds share price may decline. Higher-yielding, lower-rated corporate bonds entail a greater degree of credit risk than investment-grade securities. Foreign investing, especially in developing countries, carries additional risks such as currency and market volatility and political or social instability. Value securities may not increase in price as anticipated or may decline further in value. These and other risks are discussed in each funds prospectus.

The Power of Dollar-Cost Averaging


Regular Investments May Help You Reach Your Long-Term Goals
Dollar-cost averaging is a proven investment technique that may help lower the average cost of the shares you purchase. Even modest investments made regularly can make a difference when pursuing your longterm objectives. By investing a fixed dollar amount at regular intervals, you buy more shares when the price is low and fewer shares when the price is high. As a result, your average share cost may be less than the average price per share. Dollar-cost averaging requires continuous investments in securities, regardless of fluctuation in price levels, and investors should consider their financial ability to continue purchases through periods of low price levels or in changing economic conditions. Such a plan does not assure a profit, nor protect against a loss in a declining market. The table below illustrates what would have happened if the maximum annual individual retirement plan (IRA) contribution was put into a hypothetical investment, the Founding Funds Strategy, every year since 1974, the year IRAs were first available. As you can see, consistent, regular investments over time can make a big difference. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Please note that this hypothetical investment does not take into account federal, state or municipal taxes. If taxes were taken into account, the hypothetical values shown would have been lower.

See How a Systematic Withdrawal Plan Works
A systematic withdrawal plan allows an investor to sell shares at regular intervals for income. In the example below, a hypothetical, lump-sum purchase of $100,000 was made 30 years ago, on December 31, 1980, in the funds composing the Founding Funds Strategy, with sales charges. Beginning the following year, $6,000 of the accounts value was withdrawn each year, increasing 3% annually to adjust for the cost of living. At the end of the 30-year period, although over a quarter of a million dollars had been withdrawn, the value of the investment would still have increased to over $1 million.11 Please note that this hypothetical investment does not take into account federal, state or municipal taxes. If taxes were taken into account, the hypothetical values shown would have been lower.

CONCERNED ABOUT BAD TIMING?

What if
this hypothetical Systematic Withdrawal Plan was started eight years earlier, on 12/31/72, right before the brutal bear market of 197374? On 12/31/10 the total amount withdrawn would have been $414,958, and the value left in the account would have been $3,596,211.11

The results of such a program vary substantially depending on investment performance during the period the program is in effect. The rate or amount chosen for withdrawal determines the value remaining at the end of the period. In a period of declining market values, continued withdrawals could eventually exhaust the principal.
11. Founding Funds Strategys performance includes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, and assumes rebalancing to an equal allocation of each of the three funds on an annual basis. The gures represent performance of a hypothetical combined investment, are for illustrative purposes only, and assume a 3.5% sales charge (for initial purchases of $100,000 but less than $250,000). The amounts withdrawn do not represent dividends or income but, rather, the proceeds from the sale of shares. Sufcient shares are sold from the shareholders account at the time of each withdrawal to provide for such payments. Investors participating in a systematic withdrawal plan should annually review with their nancial advisor the results being obtained and the value of remaining shares. Based on this annual review, individuals can increase or decrease the amount of withdrawals, as appropriate. Investors should probably not begin a systematic withdrawal plan until at least six months following the initial investment. Otherwise, investors could receive a portion of their initial investment, which most likely would not have had sufcient time to appreciate to offset the sales charges incurred.
