Read MoreHide Full Article
Key Takeaways
Franklin's June AUM rose marginally to $1.79 trillion, supported by $9 billion in long-term net inflows.
BEN posted higher equity, fixed income, alternatives and cash AUM, while multi-asset AUM edged down.
Franklin's market, distributions and other impacts partly offset June's long-term net inflows.
Franklin Resources, Inc. (BEN - Free Report) reported preliminary assets under management (AUM) of $1.79 trillion as of June 30, 2026, which increased marginally from the previous month.
The rise in the AUM balance reflected long-term net inflows of $9 billion, partially offset by the net impact of market, distributions and other. Long-term flows at Western Asset Management were flat.
Franklin recorded equity assets of $756.8 billion, which increased marginally from the previous month. Fixed income AUM of $441.3 billion also rose marginally from the prior month. Alternatives AUM grew to $290.7 billion from $289.4 billion in the previous month.
However, Multi-asset AUM was $218.5 billion, down marginally from $218.7 billion as of May 31, 2026. The cash management balance was $80.6 billion, up 2.3% from the previous month.
Our View on Franklin
BEN’s efforts to diversify its business into asset classes that are seeing growing client demand, like alternative asset classes, are expected to continue to propel AUM growth. The company’s continued private-market fundraising is improving its business mix by increasing exposure to higher-growth asset classes. Further, its regionally focused distribution model, favorable international net flows and strategic acquisitions continue to support the AUM balance.
BEN's Price Performance & Zacks Rank
Over the past six months, BEN shares have gained 35.3%, significantly outperforming the industry’s decline of 17.8%.
