Franklin Resources, Inc. reported preliminary month-end assets under management (AUM) of $1.66 trillion at September 30, 2025, an increase from $1.64 trillion at August 31, 2025. This rise was primarily driven by positive market impacts, partially offset by preliminary long-term net outflows.
The firm experienced preliminary long-term net outflows of $11 billion for the month, with Western Asset Management (WAM) contributing $13 billion to these outflows. This included a single fixed income institutional redemption of approximately $7 billion, which had minimal impact on revenue.
Excluding WAM, Franklin Resources recorded preliminary long-term net inflows of $2 billion for the month, indicating continued strength in other asset classes. WAM's preliminary AUM stood at $224 billion at month-end, reflecting persistent client withdrawals and the impact of the large redemption.
