Franklin Templeton supports passage of the CLARITY Act.
The bill would make clear how crypto is regulated. Investors would know what protections apply. Firms would know which regulators they answer to.
It’s time to provide the industry the clarity it needs.

Today, we launched Franklin Crypto: a new dedicated, institutional-grade crypto investment management unit.
Industry veterans Chris Perkins and Seth Ginns will co-lead Franklin Crypto alongside @FTI_Global’s Tony Pecore. To expand our existing suite of actively managed crypto and blockchain VC investment offerings, Franklin Templeton will acquire 250 Digital, led by Perkins (@perkinscr97 ) and Ginns @sethginns , formerly of CoinFund. As part of the agreement, all CoinFund liquid cryptocurrency strategies will be acquired to broaden our crypto investment platform.
The transaction is expected to incorporate tokenized registered securities within its settlement structure, marking an important step toward conducting M&A transactions on chain.

With a full day of dynamic panels and perspectives, our Private Markets Symposium in NYC was defined by insights, innovation, and impact. Leaders from Franklin Templeton and our partners explored everything from private credit and venture growth to secondaries, real estate, and digital assets.
Our new partnership with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, @DBRG_Group,
and @ActisLLP set the stage for rich conversations on the growing importance of infrastructure in shaping the future of private markets.
The takeaway? Private markets are evolving rapidly — and collaboration across the industry will be essential to unlocking long-term opportunities.
We are excited to announce that Franklin Templeton has formed a strategic partnership with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners, @DBRG_Group and @ActisLLP to expand access to private infrastructure investing for individual investors.
From renewable energy and electrification to digital infrastructure like data centers, fiber, and towers, this collaboration brings together unmatched expertise to deliver institutional-quality opportunities in sectors powering the future.
With global infrastructure needs expected to exceed $94 trillion by 2040, this is more than an investment opportunity—it’s a chance to help build the backbone of tomorrow’s economy. https://t.co/1ibvFb72Yn
