Against this backdrop, constructing an intelligent and diversified fixed income allocation has never been more important. Franklin Templeton is proud to offer one of the largest selections of active fixed income funds in Australia. Whether you’re adjusting for income needs, portfolio diversification, or alpha, our range of fixed income funds allows you to tailor the mix of exposures that align with your clients’ needs and objectives.
