Portfolio Characteristics
Information is historical and may not reflect current or future portfolio characteristics. All portfolio holdings are subject to change.
The portfolio characteristics listed are based on the Fund’s underlying holdings, and do not necessarily reflect the Fund’s characteristics. Due to data limitations all equity holdings are assumed to be the primary equity issue (usually the ordinary or
common shares) of each security’s issuing company. This methodology may cause small differences between the portfolio’s reported characteristics and the portfolio’s actual characteristics. In practice, Franklin Templeton’s portfolio managers
invest in the class or type of security which they believe is most appropriate at the time of purchase. The dividend yield quoted here is the yield on securities within the Fund’s portfolio and should not be used as an indication of the
income received from this portfolio. The market capitalisation figures for both the portfolio and the benchmark are the security level, not aggregated up to the main issuer.
Source: FactSet. Price Ratio calculations for the weighted average use harmonic means. Any exceptions to this are noted. Market capitalisation statistics are indicated in the base currency for the portfolio presented.
Past performance is not an indicator or a guarantee of future performance.

The base currency of a fund determines the risk-free rate index used in calculating certain risk statistics on this page. A fund that is based in USD uses the US T-Bill Index as the risk free rate return, a EUR-based fund uses the Euro 3-Month T-Bill
Index, a GBP-based fund uses the UK Treasury Bills 3 Month Index, a JPY-based fund uses the Japan Financing Bill 3 Month Index, and an AUD-based fund uses the Australia T-Note 3 Month Index.
When performance for either the portfolio or its benchmark has been converted, different foreign exchange closing rates may be used between the portfolio and its benchmark.

Beta: A measure of the magnitude of a portfolio's past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of the overall market (or appropriate market index). The market (or index)
is assigned a beta of 1.00, so a portfolio with a beta of 1.20 would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the overall market rose or fell by 10%.
Dividend Yield: The annual dividend received on an equity security as a percentage of the price. For a portfolio, the value represents a weighted average of the stocks it holds. It should
not be used as an indication of the income received from this portfolio.
Information Ratio: In investing terminology, the ratio of expected return to risk. Usually, this statistical technique is used to measure a manager's performance against a benchmark.
This measure explicitly relates the degree by which an investment has beaten the benchmark to the consistency by which the investment has beaten the benchmark.
Market Capitalisation: A determination of a company's value, calculated by multiplying the total number of company stock shares outstanding by the price per share.
Price to Book: The price per share of a stock divided by its book value (i.e., net worth) per share. For a portfolio, the value represents a weighted average of the stocks it holds.
Price to Cash Flow: Supplements price/earnings ratio as a measure of relative value for a stock. For a portfolio, the value represents a weighted average of the stocks it holds.
Price to Earnings (12-mo Trailing): The share price of a stock, divided by its per-share earnings over the past year. For a portfolio, the value represents a weighted average of the
stocks it holds.
Sharpe Ratio: To calculate a Sharpe ratio, an asset's excess returns (its return in excess of the return generated by risk-free assets such as Treasury bills) are divided by the asset's
standard deviation.
Standard Deviation: A measure of the degree to which a fund's return varies from the average of its previous returns. The larger the standard deviation, the greater the likelihood (and
risk) that a fund's performance will fluctuate from the average return.
Tracking Error: Measure of the deviation of the return of a fund compared to the return of a benchmark over a fixed period of time. Expressed as a percentage. The more passively the
investment fund is managed, the smaller the tracking error.
