Franklin Resources, Inc.
A global investment manager, widely known as Franklin Templeton, that runs money for individuals, institutions, and high-net-worth clients around the world. It works through a family of specialist firms—including Western Asset Management, Clarion Partners, and Putnam—each running its own funds and accounts across stocks, bonds, alternatives, and other strategies. Founded in New York City in 1947 by Rupert Johnson Sr., the firm was named after Benjamin Franklin, whose frugality and prudence the founder admired; its stock ticker symbol is even "BEN," a nod to its namesake.
