Franklin Templeton Launches Suite of Tax-Managed Active and Passive SMAs at UBS, Powered by Canvas Custom Indexing Solution

Additionally, Franklin Managed Options Strategies Team Introduces Options Overlay Capabilities at UBS

Franklin Templeton today announces it is now offering a comprehensive suite of tax-managed separately managed account (SMA) strategies on UBS Wealth Management’s single and dual contract SMA platforms. The lineup of active and passive SMAs will give UBS advisors access to Canvas, Franklin Templeton’s Custom Indexing solution—designed to provide personalized portfolios with the potential to improve after-tax returns.

“Active strategies are built to generate excess return, but if the capital gains taxes they generate are not managed carefully, their after-tax returns can be significantly impacted,” said Roger Paradiso, Head of Advisor Portfolio and Technology Solutions for Franklin Templeton. “Marrying the fundamentals of Direct and Custom Indexing with active management and channeling distribution into the wirehouse and broker-dealer segment of the market is a promising development.”

The strategies combine Canvas’ technology capabilities with Franklin Templeton’s global equity specialist manager ClearBridge Investments’ legacy in fundamental investing, enabling advisors to seamlessly offer customized portfolios with fully digital account implementation and management.

The strategy lineup includes:

  • ClearBridge Large Cap Growth – Canvas Tax Managed
  • ClearBridge All Cap Growth – Canvas Tax Managed
  • ClearBridge Dividend Strategy – Canvas Tax Managed
  • Franklin Templeton S&P 500 – Canvas Tax Managed

In addition to the Canvas tax-managed strategies, two additional strategies from the Franklin Managed Options Strategies (Franklin MOST) team have also launched at UBS:

  • Franklin MOST Managed Call Selling
  • Franklin MOST Risk Managed Equity

The addition of Franklin MOST alongside Canvas provides another valuable capability for advisors to more effectively customize client portfolios at scale.

Franklin Templeton is a leading provider in the fast-growing SMA industry, with over $137 billion in SMA assets under management as of March 31, 2024. These offerings are core to Franklin Templeton’s investment in its Custom Wealth Solutions group that is focused on delivering innovative and modular investment and practice management solutions to advisors serving the high net worth community.

All investments involve risks, including the loss of principal.
