Franklin Templeton & Wand AI bring agentic AI to asset management
Firms in the asset management industry are turning increasingly to generative and agentic AI to streamline operations, improve decision-making, and uncover new sources of alpha (the measure of an investment strategy’s ability to outperform the market after accounting for risk). The trend is continuing with the latest partnership between Franklin Templeton and Wand AI, marking a shift toward more autonomous, data-driven investment processes.
Franklin Resources, operating as Franklin Templeton, has entered into a strategic partnership with enterprise AI platform, Wand AI, to begin the enterprise deployment of agentic AI in Franklin Templeton’s worldwide platform. Wand’s Autonomous Workforce and Agent Management technologies have enabled Franklin to implement agentic AI at scale, accelerating data-driven decision-making in its investment processes.
