Fund Description
The fund was incepted in August 1998 and is managed by Franklin Advisers. The objective of this fund is to provide high current income, consistent with preservation of capital. Its secondary objective is capital appreciation over the long term. The Fund invests at least 85% of its assets in investment grade debt securities and financial futures contracts, or options on such contracts, on U.S. Treasury securities. The fund generally invests in investment grade securities or in unrated securities the fund's manager determines are comparable. The fund may invest up to 15% of total assets in non-investment grade debt securities, but does not invest in securities rated lower than B by S&P or Moody's. The fund offers dividends monthly and capital gains, if any annually.
