About FVFRX

Franklin Small Cap Value Fund is a mutual fund focused on achieving long-term total return by investing primarily in small-capitalization companies. The fund maintains a disciplined approach, allocating at least 80% of its net assets to stocks of companies with market capitalizations typically under $3.5 billion at the time of purchase. With a value-oriented investment style, the fund targets companies considered to be undervalued yet possessing the potential for significant capital appreciation. Its diversification spans various sectors, with notable allocations in technology, industrials, financial services, energy, and consumer cyclical industries. Managed by a seasoned team, the fund holds a concentrated portfolio where the top 10 holdings account for over a quarter of total assets. Franklin Small Cap Value Fund is well-regarded for its conservative relative-value strategy and has demonstrated a track record of favorable risk-adjusted performance over more than a decade. The fund is currently closed to new investors with limited exceptions, and continues to serve existing shareholders seeking exposure to the U.S. small-cap value segment.
