Investors interested in stocks from the Financial - Investment Management sector have probably already heard of Franklin Resources (BEN) and Apollo Global Management Inc. (APO). But which of these two stocks offers value investors a better bang for their buck right now?
BEN is pulling forward its 30% margin goal as private markets fundraising, integrated credit and AI adoption gain traction.
Franklin Resources is rated a buy, supported by four consecutive earnings beats and robust organic growth in client inflows and AUM. BEN's global diversification, A-level credit ratings, and resilience in volatile markets position it well versus peers, despite weaker ROE and operating margins. Dividend yield is attractive near 4%, but declining growth and a high payout ratio raise sustainability concerns.
BEN's fiscal Q3 results benefit from higher revenues and record AUM. Strong net inflows and share repurchases support results despite higher expenses.
