Total combined Assets Under Management (Total AUM) combines the U.S. and non-u.s. AUM of the investment management subsidiaries of the parent company, Franklin Resources, Inc. [NYSE: BEN], a global investment organization operating as Franklin Templeton Investments (FTI). Total and platform AUM includes discretionary and advisory accounts, including pooled investment vehicles, separate accounts and other vehicles, as well as some accounts that may not be eligible for inclusion in composites as defined by the firm's policies. Total and platform AUM may also include advisory accounts with or without trading authority. In addition, assets for which certain FTI advisers provide limited asset allocation advisory services, and assets that are not allocated to FTI products are not included in the AUM figures shown. Please note that the table above does not show certain FTI affiliates whose AUM is included in the total combined AUM reflected above. Franklin Templeton Solutions (FT Solutions) AUM as of December 31, FT Solutions invests in various investment platforms advised by a number of investment advisory entities within FTI. Platform AUM reported for FT Solutions therefore includes certain AUM separately reported under each utilized investment platform. Total AUM also includes assets managed by certain FTI advisers that do not form part of the selected investment platforms shown. As a result, the combined platform AUMs may not equal Total AUM and may be calculated and reported separately for regulatory or other purposes under each investment adviser. Each local asset manager may be considered as an entity affiliated with or associated to FTI by virtue of being a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources, Inc. (FRI), an entity or joint venture in which FRI owns a partial interest, which may be a minority interest, or a third party asset management company to which investment advisory services have been delegated by an FTI adviser.
