The US-reported view
The sections below draw on US regulatory filings — SEC Form ADV and Form D — and on US investors' own disclosures. They set out Franklin Templeton's US-reported slice: the funds, service providers, domiciles and activity visible in US filings, not its worldwide business.
1. US-SEC private funds
This page reports $1.6bn of gross asset value across 18 private funds that Franklin Templeton reports on SEC Form ADV, filings through 2024. Its firm-wide figures are in the Assets summary at the top of this page, measured on a different basis.

2. Service providers
PwC audits 17 of the 18 Franklin Templeton funds that name an auditor on Form ADV Schedule D, filings through 2024 — more than any other firm. State Street administers 7 of the 18 that name an administrator, on the same filings. Relationships the filings attribute to Franklin Templeton's own group are part of its structure, not third-party appointments, and are left out of these counts.
Across the funds that disclose each role on Schedule D — the count is funds naming that provider, of funds disclosing the role at all:
| Fund administrator | State Street (7 of 18); BNY Mellon (3 of 18); SS&C (3 of 18) — and 4 more |
| Auditor | PwC (17 of 18); EY (1 of 18) |
| Custodian | State Street (7 of 17); J.P. Morgan (6 of 17); BNY Mellon (3 of 17) — and 1 more |

4. Fund filing activity
The largest US raise on file for a Franklin Templeton fund is $1m sold to date, on a 2026 Form D filing. Amounts are cumulative sold-to-date figures as filed. They cover a fund's life up to that filing, not a single fundraise, and a fund that raises outside the US files nothing here.
