Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]
HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS PERFORMANCE?
For the twelve months ended December 31, 2024, Class A shares of Templeton Global Balanced Fund returned 0.44%. The Fund compares its performance to the MSCI All Country World Index-NR, the Bloomberg Multiverse Index and the Blended Benchmark†, which returned 17.49%, -1.34% and 7.78%, respectively, for the same period.
PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
Top contributors to performance:
Interest rate strategies contributed to relative performance for the fixed interest portion of the Fund. Overweighted duration exposures in Egypt, South Africa, India and Kazakhstan contributed to relative returns.
Overall credit exposures contributed to relative returns, due to overweight positions in USD-denominated sub-investment grade sovereign credit.
In currencies, underweighted exposure to the euro contributed to relative returns.
In the equity portfolio, stock selection in financials, consumer staples and health care contributed to relative performance for the year.
Top detractors from performance:
Currency positions across regions detracted from performance, including the Japanese yen, South Korean won, Kazakhstani tenge, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Colombian peso, Australian dollar, Hungarian forint and Egyptian pound.
In interest rate strategies, underweighted duration exposure to China and overweighted duration exposure to Brazil also detracted from relative performance.
An underweight and stock selection in the information technology sector was the primary detractor from equity returns, with limited exposure to rallying U.S. mega-cap tech stocks a major headwind to relative performance.
Use of derivatives and the impact on performance:
The Fund utilized foreign exchange forwards and written and purchased currency options to gain additional exposure to currencies. Given that the USD appreciated against most currencies in 2024, these derivatives detracted from performance. Interest rate swaps were used to manage duration exposure, which also detracted from performance.
Performance Past Does Not Indicate Future [Text] The Fund’s past performance is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future.

PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
Top contributors to performance:
Interest rate strategies contributed to relative performance for the fixed interest portion of the Fund. Overweighted duration exposures in Egypt, South Africa, India and Kazakhstan contributed to relative returns.
Overall credit exposures contributed to relative returns, due to overweight positions in USD-denominated sub-investment grade sovereign credit.
In currencies, underweighted exposure to the euro contributed to relative returns.
In the equity portfolio, stock selection in financials, consumer staples and health care contributed to relative performance for the year.
Top detractors from performance:
Currency positions across regions detracted from performance, including the Japanese yen, South Korean won, Kazakhstani tenge, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Colombian peso, Australian dollar, Hungarian forint and Egyptian pound.
In interest rate strategies, underweighted duration exposure to China and overweighted duration exposure to Brazil also detracted from relative performance.
An underweight and stock selection in the information technology sector was the primary detractor from equity returns, with limited exposure to rallying U.S. mega-cap tech stocks a major headwind to relative performance.
Use of derivatives and the impact on performance:
The Fund utilized foreign exchange forwards and written and purchased currency options to gain additional exposure to currencies. Given that the USD appreciated against most currencies in 2024, these derivatives detracted from performance. Interest rate swaps were used to manage duration exposure, which also detracted from performance.
