The funds, launched on 30 May, will be promoted to UK investors in the autumn later this year.
“The group has soft-launched two new funds on 30th May – Franklin Diversified Income and Franklin Diversified Growth Fund. Franklin Templeton plans to actively promote the funds to UK investors in the autumn of 2014,” Ian Wilkins, UK country head, said.
The Diversified Income Fund seeks a combination of income and longer-term capital appreciation over a rolling five year period.
The Diversified Growth Fund actively manages direct and indirect exposure to equities, fixed income securities, cash and equivalents, collective investment schemes and indirect exposure to alternative investments. This includes but is not limited to commodities and property.
