FRANKLIN TEMPLETON INVESTMENT FUNDS FRANKLIN TEMPLETON INVESTMENT FUNDS
R I M – Y J ,
The year under review was marked by the sovereign debt crisis in the eurozone, by fitful growth in the US, and fears of a slowdown
in China, all of which hurt risk appetite and brought the yields of a small number of so-called “safe haven” instruments like US
and German government bonds to multiyear lows.
European growth—already low—petered out as the year progressed, with a number of countries plunging back into recession.
Across the Atlantic, growth in the US has been hampered by prolonged, post-financial crisis deleveraging by households,
governments and corporations alike. In light of ultra-low benchmark rates, various forms of quantitative easing, and various
fiscal stimulus packages, it is indeed somewhat disappointing to see that annualized growth in the US slowed to just 1.9% in the
first three months of calendar 2012, compared with 3% in the previous quarter.
Nevertheless, with US corporations continuing to display strong earnings and cash balances, the US has remained comparatively
more attractive to most investors than other regions. During the reporting period, US stocks outperformed not only European
stocks but also emerging-market equities, as concerns about the extent and impact of the slowdown in China added to investor
preference for apparently lower-risk assets in a period of continued uncertainty. Stock indexes in countries with large exposure to
China were especially affected, but concerns about the adequacy of domestic policy in some countries, including Brazil and India,
also played a role.
Commodities proved volatile over the year under review. Oil prices rose rapidly in the first four months of calendar 2012, in part
because of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. But by the end of the reporting period, Brent crude oil prices were back to
where they were in the fourth quarter of 2010. Recession in Europe, sluggish growth in the US, and a slowdown in Asia meant
that the prices of many other commodities were moving broadly lower by the end of the review period as well. Gold prices
reached record highs in September 2011, but somewhat paradoxically in light of continuing market jitters, interest in gold ebbed
considerably thereafter. This trend suggests a breakdown in the traditional link between gold and inflation-adjusted interest
rates—usually, as interest rates fall, so does the opportunity cost of holding gold.
It seems that the US dollar, rather than gold, has become the ultimate safe haven for investors, as reflected in its strength in
recent months against a range of other currencies. In turn, the rise in the dollar (and sharp drop in currencies like the Indian
rupee) has made gold much more expensive and has also put pressure on investment strategies based on currency diversification
into emerging markets. Like the US dollar, the Japanese yen and the Swiss franc have benefited from haven demand, forcing the
monetary authorities to intervene to try to curb upward pressure. A further notable development on the currency front over the
past 12 months has been the rise in the role of the Chinese renminbi in global trade, a trend we think is likely to continue.
In the fixed-income arena, the year has been marked by the sovereign debt crisis in peripheral Europe and by large-scale bond-
buying by central banks in an effort to boost activity—or at least dampen the crisis. While the price that countries like Spain have
to pay to issue debt has climbed steeply, yields on benchmark government bonds issued by the US, Germany and the UK have
tumbled. In some instances, investors have even been prepared to accept negative real rates of interest in return for the protection
these bonds are supposed to offer. For investors interested in earning income in exchange for reasonable risk exposure, the
corporate sector has offered better prospects. Indeed, there is evidence that some international investors have been favoring bonds
issued by US and multi-national companies with strong balance sheets over eurozone government debt.
While we understand that the events of the past year instill a sense of caution among many investors, we think it is easy to be too
pessimistic. In the first place, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) still projects global gross domestic product (GDP) growth
in calendar-year 2012 at a respectable 3.5%. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) believes it
will be 3.4%. Both the IMF and OECD are predicting a pick-up in global growth next year, with the IMF believing that growth
will come in at 3.9% in 2013. While there have been fears that Europe is nearing a “Lehman moment”, we think the end result of
the crisis may actually be much closer eurozone integration around fiscal and banking issues rather than imminent disintegration.
Significantly, the European Summit in Brussels at the end of June 2012 opened the way toward a banking union in which eurozone
banks will be supervised by a single regulator. And European banks, while they have been in the news for all the wrong reasons
over the past year, are at least less leveraged than they were at the time of the Lehman Brothers collapse in 2008 and continue to
benefit from the backstop provided by the European Central Bank.
Presidential and congressional elections will take place in the US near the end of 2012, making it difficult to envisage any major
policy initiative there in the months ahead. Yet the US is fast approaching a so-called “fiscal cliff”—in other words, a set of pre-
planned tax rises and spending cuts due to kick in at the end of 2012 that could weigh heavily on growth. But likely political
agreement on the issues involved could help relieve unease among economic participants and convince them to spend more on
jobs and investment. In the meantime, just like central banks elsewhere, the US Federal Reserve continues to be highly active in
providing liquidity to the markets.
Meanwhile, policy makers in China have been extremely active, and they have the firepower to ensure that growth holds up during
this year’s delicate political transition. Interest rates and banks’ reserve requirements have already been cut and, as in Europe, the
economic challenges that China is undoubtedly facing have had the beneficial effect of accelerating reform. Although Southeast
Asia (ex Japan) is not a homogenous block, indebtedness there has remained very low and credit conditions are generally favorable
for investors. A strong US dollar and falling commodity prices have helped reduce inflation, meaning there is increased scope for
central banks there and in China to loosen monetary policy, as they have already begun to do.

The information stated in this report represents historical data and is not an indication of future results.
Alongside reasonable valuations across many markets, all or some of these factors could prove to be a catalyst for equities in the
year ahead and could conceivably serve as a signal for a reversal in the fortunes of risk assets. By contrast, US and core European
bonds at present levels do not look attractive to us, and Japanese government bonds even less so. The valuation gap between core
sovereign bonds and equities has seldom been as large as it was at the end of the year under review, and the rise in interest-rate
sensitivity has not done anything to make core government bonds any more attractive to us. We still see, however, pockets of
opportunity in fixed income—for example, in emerging market debt. Even within Europe, a handful of countries that have been
scorned by investors could hold potential, including countries like Ireland, Poland and Hungary. Likewise, in spite of the fall in
corporate bond yield spreads over sovereigns, we believe there are still opportunities in corporate debt, a sector where ratings are
often higher than for the underlying sovereign and where default levels have remained low.

Audit Report
To the Shareholders of
Franklin Templeton Investment Funds
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Franklin Templeton Investment Funds (the “Company”) and of each
of its Funds, which comprise the Statement of Net Assets and the Schedule of Investments as at June 30, 2012 and the Statement
of Operations and Changes in Net Assets for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory notes to the financial statements.
Responsibility of the Board of Directors of the Company for the financial statements
The Board of Directors of the Company is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation of the financial statements and for
such internal control as the Board of Directors of the Company determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Responsibility of the “Réviseur d’entreprises agréé”
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance
with International Standards on Auditing as adopted for Luxembourg by the “Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier”.
Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures selected depend on the judgment of the “Réviseur d’entreprises agréé”, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the “Réviseur
d’entreprises agréé” considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements
in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used
and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board of Directors of the Company, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of Franklin Templeton Investment Funds
and of each of its Funds as of June 30, 2012, and of the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the year then
ended in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation of the financial statements.
Other matters
Supplementary information included in the annual report has been reviewed in the context of our mandate but has not been
subject to specific audit procedures carried out in accordance with the standards described above. Consequently, we express
no opinion on such information. However, we have no observation to make concerning such information in the context of the
financial statements taken as a whole.
