About FRISX
The Franklin Rising Dividends Fund Class R6 is an open-end mutual fund designed to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in companies with a strong track record of consistently increasing dividends. At least 80% of its net assets are allocated to equity securities, chiefly common stocks of firms that have paid consistently rising dividends for several years, often with a focus on those that have boosted payouts in at least 8 out of the past 10 years and have demonstrated financial discipline, such as prudent earnings reinvestment and sound debt levels. This approach supports the fund's strategy of targeting businesses with stable cash flows and robust fundamentals, rather than simply those with high current yields. The fund spans the entire market capitalization spectrum and is not limited by sector, though technology firms are sometimes heavily represented depending on market conditions. With a research-driven, bottom-up investment philosophy, the fund aims to construct a portfolio of fundamentally strong companies acquired at attractive valuations. Its role in the financial market is to serve investors seeking exposure to high-quality equities with potential for capital growth and an emphasis on rising income streams over time.
