In our recent Issuer Insights episode from ETF Market Canada, Ahmed Farooq of Franklin Templeton Investments highlighted how international markets, driven by European infrastructure and defense spending and Asia’s AI boom, are outperforming the U.S. Canadian investors can access this via: • Franklin Low Volatility High Dividend Index ETF (FLVI) – screened for high dividends and forward-looking volatility. • Franklin International Core Equity ETF (FLUR) – low-cost passive exposure.
