About FRCSX

Franklin Small Cap Value Fund Class R6 is an open-end mutual fund designed to achieve long-term total return by primarily investing in small-capitalization companies. The fund allocates at least 80% of its net assets to small-cap equities, focusing on stocks that the portfolio managers believe are undervalued and possess the potential for capital appreciation. It follows a value-oriented investment approach, utilizing in-depth fundamental analysis and a bottom-up stock-picking process to identify opportunities across diverse sectors such as financial services, industrials, consumer discretionary, and technology. The fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities and, while its primary focus is on U.S. equities, maintains diversified exposure, with a modest allocation to international stocks and cash. It is actively managed by a team with significant tenure, leveraging conservative risk management to maintain a disciplined strategy. Benchmarking against the Russell 2000 Value Index, Franklin Small Cap Value Fund Class R6 is recognized for its disciplined approach to identifying companies facing cyclical challenges or temporary setbacks, as well as those considered out of favor by the broader market.
