Strategy. The Fund is a fund of funds meaning that it seeks to achieve its investment goal by investing its assets primarily in other funds (underlying funds), predominantly other Franklin Templeton affiliated mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs). The Fund is designed for investors seeking the highest level of long-term total return that is consistent with a higher level of risk. The Fund may be most appropriate for investors with a longer investment horizon.

The Fund is designed for investors seeking the highest level of long-term total return that is consistent with a higher level of risk. The Fund may be most appropriate for investors with a longer investment horizon. Under normal market conditions, the investment manager allocates the Funds assets among the broad asset classes of equity and fixed-income investments by investing primarily in a distinctly-weighted combination of underlying funds, based on each underlying fund's predominant asset class and strategy. These underlying funds, in turn, invest in a variety of U.S. and foreign equity and fixed-income securities, and may also have exposure to derivative instruments. The investment manager uses the following as a general guide in allocating the Funds assets among the broad asset classes: 80% equity funds; and 20% fixed-income funds. These percentages may be changed from time to time by the Funds investment manager without the approval of shareholders, and may vary up to 10% from these percentages of Fund assets. When selecting equity funds, the investment manager considers the underlying funds foreign and domestic exposure, market capitalization ranges, and investment style (growth vs. value). When selecting fixed-income funds, the investment manager considers interest rates, duration, regional exposures, credit quality, including investment grade or junk bonds or other factors. In allocating between equity and fixed income funds, the manager primarily considers fixed income a means of diversification to help offset the risks presented by exposure to equity investments. The investment manager considers the duration and maturity of the underlying funds portfolios. Certain fixed income funds may hold securities across the credit quality spectrum, including below investment grade or "junk" bonds. In addition, in selecting underlying funds the investment manager also considers the overall combination of the underlying funds in each asset class and the overall costs of investing in the underlying funds. In evaluating the risk level of the underlying funds, the investment manager analyzes such factors as: (a) relative and absolute performance, including correlations with other underlying funds as well as corresponding benchmarks, and (b) their volatility (the variability of returns from one period to the next). The investment manager will vary the underlying funds allocation percentages based upon the Funds risk/return level. No more than 25% of the Funds assets may be invested in any one underlying fund, except that the Fund may invest up to 50% of its total assets in Franklin U.S. Government Securities Fund, Franklin U.S. Treasury Bond ETF, or a combination of both.
