Fiduciary Trust Company International is a United States–based wealth management firm that provides investment management and wealth management services. It has served high-net-worth families, foundations, and endowments since 1931.[1] As of 2019[update], the firm had $71 billion in assets under administration and management, serving clients in 48 countries.[2] The firm and its subsidiaries maintain offices in New York City, and several other locations.[3]
Fiduciary Trust is part of Franklin Templeton Investments.[4]
Fiduciary Trust Company International manages separate portfolios of client-focused equity and fixed income assets, investing globally in public equities, fixed income and alternative markets.[5][6] The Company generally invests in value-oriented small and large capitalization growth stocks.[7] It invests primarily in municipal fixed income securities.[8] The firm uses a top-down approach to select sectors and currencies through fundamental analysis and a bottom-up approach to construct portfolios of equities and fixed income securities.[9][10][11] The firm uses its own research to justify its investments.
As a fiduciary, the company has an obligation to always act in the best interests of its clients, putting their needs before its own.[12][13] Fiduciary Trust Company International has been recognized for its commitment to this principle, including being named one of the best trust companies in the United States by Trusts & Estates magazine.[14]
Although Fiduciary Trust Company International is part of Franklin Templeton, it operates as an independent organization with its own management team and investment philosophy.[15]
