Overview

Risk Disclosure

INVESTMENT INVOLVES RISKS. The value of the Fund can be volatile and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

  • Franklin Floating Rate Fund plc invests up to 100% of its net assets in shares of the Franklin Floating Rate Master Trust which invests primarily in senior secured corporate loans and corporate debt securities with floating interest rates. 
  • The Fund is subject to market risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and sovereign debt risk, low-rated, unrated or non-investment grade securities risk, liquidity risk, emerging markets risk, repurchase agreement risk, derivatives risk, counterparty risk, hedged share classes risk, currency risk and RMB Currency and Conversion risks. 
  • The Fund may at its discretion pay dividends out of the capital or out of gross income of the Fund while paying all or part of the Fund’s fees and expenses out of the capital of the Fund, which results in effectively paying dividends out of capital. Payment of dividends out of capital amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of an investor’s original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Any distributions involving payment of dividends out of the Fund’s capital or payment of dividends effectively out of the Fund’s capital (as the case may be) may result in an immediate reduction of the net asset value per share.
  • Investors should not invest based on this marketing material alone.  Offering documents should be read for further details, including the risk factors. Before you decide to invest, you should make sure the intermediary has explained to you that the Fund is suitable to you.

Summary of Fund Objective

A master feeder fund which seeks to provide investors with as high a level of current income and preservation of capital as is consistent with investing primarily in floating rate or variable rate senior secured corporate loans or senior secured debt securities.
