Something bigger is happening around XRP—and it isn't just one headline. Ripple President Monica Long has been recognized as one of the most influential leaders in stablecoins as RLUSD continues gaining momentum. MoonPay has connected FedNow to its platform, bringing real-time 24/7 payments another step closer to digital assets. Franklin Templeton now leads tokenized Treasury issuers with $1.6 billion in on-chain AUM growth, while Citadel Securities has made its first major crypto investment with a $400 million commitment to Crypto.com focused on tokenized securities and derivatives. At the same time, the CLARITY Act continues advancing in Washington, providing the regulatory framework institutions have been waiting for. These aren't isolated stories. They're all pointing in the same direction. In today's episode of **On The Chain**, Jeff and Chip connect the dots behind XRP, Ripple, RLUSD, FedNow, tokenization, stablecoins, institutional adoption, and why the financial system appears to be converging faster than ever before. We also go **Around the World**, breaking down today's biggest geopolitical stories, including election integrity, Scott Bessent, Marco Rubio, government oversight, Canada, and the global developments shaping markets and policy. **If you want to understand what's happening—not just the headlines, but how they all fit together—this is the episode you don't want to miss.** ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ## SUPPORT ON THE CHAIN ☕ Badassery Coffee [https://badasserycoffee.com](https://badasserycoffee.com)

This podcast is our final podcast released and produced by the Always a Pensions Angle podcast series by DG Publishing. While the recording was made earlier in the Spring, the governance concerns remain pertinent and in flux for the LGPS. Clair Alcock is a highly respected leader in UK public service pensions, with over 20 years of experience dedicated to making pension systems more transparent, fair, and accessible. She currently serves as Head of Pensions at the Local Government Association (LGA) and Secretary to the LGPS Advisory Board, where she plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of public sector pensions.We speak in particular about the challenges of certain governance changes - the introduction of the independent person role as well as the Senior Officer within every Administering Authority. We discuss training, the importance of knowledge sharing and upgrading the skill network. We look to the future finally, to determine the direction that many of these pooled entities are likely to take. The Fiftyfaces Podcast is supported by Franklin Templeton and Alvine Capital. Franklin Templeton is a global investment management firm that provides a broad range of investment solutions, including mutual funds, ETFs, alternative investments, wealth management, and technology-enabled financial services.

The Last Trade: Jackson, Michael, and Brian break down Vanguard's surprise listing for a head of digital assets and what TradFi's reluctant capitulation really signals. They dig into Bitcoin's 50% retrace into the $60Ks, why momentum (not Saylor) is driving price, and Bill Miller's case for intrinsic value. They close on the culture downstream of debasement: the socialist moment, a gambling epidemic, and Apple's overnight price hikes.---

They Can't Ignore XRP Today wasn't about one headline. It was about what all of the headlines mean when you connect the dots. Ripple just put the XRP brand on the jersey of a major NCAA athletics program. AI is rapidly expanding on the XRP Ledger. The XRPL Foundation just surpassed 1,000,000 agentic payments. Franklin Templeton publicly acknowledged XRP's maturity compared to newer blockchain networks. At the same time, regulatory momentum in Washington continues to move in favor of digital assets. Individually, these may seem like separate stories. Together, they paint a very different picture. Tonight, we break down why XRP is becoming much more than another cryptocurrency—and why institutions, developers, governments, and now even mainstream sports are all converging on the same ecosystem. We also cover:

Matthew Kentridge, a strategy consultant with over 30 years experience, who is a trustee and advisor and also works as an executive coach. We were both at INSEAD together, and I have followed his career ever since – and am delighted now to bring some of his learnings to our audience. Our conversation starts with his early consulting career and the experience that growing up in South Africa generated, as well as his early career there. We move then to his move into coaching and the principles that he brings to coaching sessions, including the four big questions that he believes everyone should spend time thinking about. He runs a course around these four big questions, which everyone, regardless of age, gender, nationality, or educational level, has to confront and address at some point in their life: Who Am I? What Do I Want? What Are My Options? What Happens Next? We move from this into the importance of successfully navigating key inflection points and keeping strategy simple.This podcast is supported by Franklin Templeton and Alvine Capital. Franklin Templeton is a global investment management firm that provides a broad range of investment solutions, including mutual funds, ETFs, alternative investments, wealth management, and technology-enabled financial services.

Steven Dover, chief market strategist at Franklin Templeton, says there is still more upside to the market, based on earnings growth, noting that the economy and stock market have been resilient due to the "phenomenal" profits companies have been generating. Dover notes that the market is fully valued, but not expensive; "We think earnings this next year could be [up] 15 to 20 percent, so the market could follow that without being more expensive." Dover, who is also the head of the Franklin Templeton Institute, notes that the earnings growth has been greatest among small caps, which is why he is leaning in that direction, and he advocates for fixed income as ballast for portfolios now; ;he had previously lightened up on the Magnificent Seven and other market leaders, and he says that the market has relaxed on those stocks, which may create targeted buying opportunities. Kevin Dreyer, co-chief investment officer for value at Gabelli Asset Management — part of the team running Gabelli Equity Trust and other closed-end funds — discusses how he is finding value looking for names that are "differentiated and not highly correlated" to the stocks that have been leading the market's return to record levels. Specifically, Dreyer says he is looking for businesses that are "A.I. resilient" and able to withstand and/or benefit from the development of artificial intelligence. One area he cited as particularly attractive is sports and entertainment, because " You can't have an algorithm or chatbot replicate the New York Knicks … but you and I can go out and buy MSGS, which owns the Knicks."  Plus, Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, turns to a trending part of the market and makes an actively managed Fidelity small- and mid-cap fund his pick for "ETF of the Week."

In this episode, we sit down with Roger Bayston, Executive Vice President and Head of Digital Assets at Franklin Templeton, to discuss why institutional conviction in crypto is stronger than ever, even in a difficult market. While many investors are focused on Bitcoin's short-term price action, Wall Street is quietly investing in the infrastructure that could power the next decade of finance.~~~~~⁠⁠

Bitcoin-Crash oder Kaufchance? Ist BTC im Bärenmarkt am Ende – oder entsteht gerade einer der spannendsten Einstiege des gesamten Zyklus? In dieser aktuellen Bitcoin-Analyse 2026 prüfen Mario Lochner und Marian Kopocz, Krypto-Journalist des Jahres, was jetzt für den Bitcoin-Kurs, die BTC-Prognose und Anleger entscheidend ist. Das Sentiment ist düster, der Markt steht unter Druck und selbst Blocktrainer Roman Reher warnt vor bröckelnden Bitcoin-Narrativen. Doch ist die extreme Skepsis vielleicht genau das Signal, auf das langfristige Investoren gewartet haben? Denn am Debasement Trade hat sich wenig geändert: Die Staatsschulden steigen weiter, das Vertrauen in Fiat-Währungen bleibt angeschlagen und Bitcoin gilt für viele Anleger weiterhin als digitales Gegenmodell zum bestehenden Geldsystem. In dieser Analyse erfahrt ihr: Ist Bitcoin bereits günstig oder droht der nächste Kursrutsch? Bitcoin-Crash, Bodenbildung oder Beginn einer neuen Rally? Was zeigen Charttechnik, Unterstützungen und Widerstände? Ab welchen Kursmarken könnte ein Bitcoin-Kauf interessant werden? Was verraten die Zu- und Abflüsse der Bitcoin Spot-ETFs? Welche Pläne verfolgen BlackRock, Franklin Templeton und JPMorgan? Hat Michael Saylor Bitcoin verkauft?

Kirstie Sneyd is an organizational psychologist, executive coach and the author of “Returning Well”, a practical, evidence-based guide for working parents and their managers. We were both at INSEAD together, and I have followed her career ever since – and am delighted now to bring some of her learnings to our audience.Our conversation starts with Kirstie's roots in consulting, and what drew her to organizational behaviour at INSEAD. The first glimmers of what made a job worthwhile though stemmed from much earlier, and a beachside holiday in Devon. A career in consulting evolved into one that focused on coaching executives to find their voice, retain visibility and, in some cases, return to the workplace after a period of absence.We speak about her book and the reception that it received, and the themes that Kirstie is now working on with her coaching clients. Many of these relate to coping with an increasingly heavy and complex cognitive load, as well as the pressure that social media creates in terms of comparisons to others. You can find Kirstie's book here https://www.amazon.co.uk/Returning-well-working-parents-managers/dp/3111618277  and more information about her coaching practice on her LinkedIn profile here: LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/kirstiesneydThis podcast is supported by Franklin Templeton and Alvine Capital. Franklin Templeton is a global investment management firm that provides a broad range of investment solutions, including mutual funds, ETFs, alternative investments, wealth management, and technology-enabled financial services.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.Building community is central to enabling an industry to grow. There are few better ways to build community and foster trusted relationships than to break bread. As the wealth channel continues to expand its adoption of private markets, peer-to-peer learning becomes ever more important. Sharing experiences and perspectives is what will help the wealth channel adopt private market solutions thoughtfully and responsibly.That's what happened at Franklin Templeton's Private Markets RIA Advisory Council event and dinner at BLACKBARN recently. Bread was broken. Relationships were built. We also found time to record a podcast at a dinner table with Franklin Templeton's Head of Private Markets - Americas Wealth Management Dave Donahoo and Summit Wealth Group's CIO Chelsea Ganey. The discussion granted access to a direct, honest, and raw window into perspectives on how asset managers and wealth managers can work together to educate one another and help move the industry forward. And yes, bread was broken before and after the podcast.Please enjoy this fantastic conversation with Dave and Chelsea on the state of private markets and private wealth and how both asset managers and wealth managers can balance customization and differentiation with scale.Thanks, Dave and Chelsea, for such a thoughtful and fascinating conversation.Show Notes00:00 A message from Ultimus, our Sponsor00:57 Meet The Guests01:07 Private Markets Are Eating World01:29 Why Create RIA Council01:49 Franklin Client-First DNA02:09 From Public To Private02:43 Listening Beyond Product03:07 Peer To Peer Insights04:12 Chelsea On The Benefits of Advisory Council04:36 Inbox Overload And Filtering05:10 Serving Diverse RIA Needs06:15 Many RIAs Within One06:30 What CIOs Need Most06:54 Educating Advisors At Scale07:32 GPs Must Listen Better08:26 What Education Really Means09:01 Repeatable Advisor Resources09:54 Avoid Oversimplifying Complexity10:30 Education Shifts To Choice11:50 Balancing Choice And Customization13:13 Centralized Menu For Scale15:10 Sober Selling And Integrity16:30 Franklin Private Markets Platform17:59 Specialist Managers Model18:28 Infrastructure Partnership Play19:22 Do More With Less Managers21:04 Holistic Options For Advisors21:47 Where Product Innovation Goes22:23 Sun Moon Stars Aligning22:53 Future Access 401k Models23:12 Start With Investment Why23:29 Allocator Innovation Lens24:09 Models Versus Customization24:35 Why Innovation Matters24:53 No One Right Way25:18 Whats Still Missing25:33 Scaling And The Middle25:55 Magic Wand Question26:19 Plumbing And Reporting26:32 Perpetual Structure Tradeoffs26:46 Protecting Investment Integrity27:30 Long Term Over Short Term27:42 Need More CIO Mindsets28:03 Strategic Allocation For Alts28:50 Chelsea On Strategic Framing29:34 Making Liquidity Intuitive30:06 Educating On Liquidity Risk30:29 Private Markets Risk Reframe31:32 Dave On Portfolio Construction32:14 Standardizing Industry Terms32:42 Building Trust With Liquidity33:45 A Fun Question38:10 Client Analogies That Stick40:43 Fat Pitch Opportunities Today42:53 Closing Thoughts And ThanksA Word from Our Sponsor, UltimusThis episode of Alt Goes Mainstream is brought to you by Ultimus, the full-service fund administrator and transfer agent powering asset managers in private and public markets.

Crypto News: FBI director Kash Patel issues warning to crypto fraudsters and scammers. Franklin Templeton proposes new ETFs that turn corporate dividends into bitcoin.Brought to you by

James Mitchell was a director at Goldman Sachs, Barclays and Phoenix Group before developing a portfolio career including a strategic advisory role with Re-wired Earth as well as Empathy, a company committed to supporting families through bereavement. He holds a number of other advisory and director roles.Our conversation traces James's career through various roles and some of the realisations that dawned as businesses went through various transformations - such as through outsourcing. He notes that the cost savings realised are rarely those that are expected, and we discuss the various governance changes that are taking place across the financial services industry.Moving then to his portfolio career we discuss with James the mission of Empathy, and the various strands involved in supporting families through bereavement, while Re-wired Earth has its own exciting opportunity sets. We finish with a discussion of life's passions - from snow boarding to cycling and epic travel to photography.This podcast is supported by Franklin Templeton and Alvine Capital. Franklin Templeton is a global investment management firm that provides a broad range of investment solutions, including mutual funds, ETFs, alternative investments, wealth management, and technology-enabled financial services.

We are delighted to bring you Series 3 of the 2026 Fiftyfaces Podcast. This set of 10 compelling conversations takes a slightly different tack to usual with a particular focus on some of the building blocks behind firms - such as strategy (as described by Matthew Kentridge), motivation (Kirstie Sneyd) and planning (Brett Hickey). We look at what happens when institutions such as public pension funds are leanly resourced and the creativity that can flow from this in terms of staffing, outsourcing and collaboration (Nadia Oumata). Staying with motivation we look at how our teachers and mentors can have play such a formative role (Kristina Hooper), at the enrichment that can come from a portfolio career (James Mitchell), at the inertia in financial markets (Crawford Spence) and the evolution of ESG (Michael Viehs). Sally Bridgeland returns to the podcast to speak about her "soon to be published" book that looks at two schools of thought and approach to the workplace - what she describes as the chess club v. the drama club.Our guests are strategists, founders, coaches, CIOs, academics, authors, cyclists . . the list goes on. Tune in from later this week for an educational journey . . Thanks to Alvine Capital Management and Franklin Templeton for sponsoring Series 3 of 2026.

Charlie Durkin is Principal Solutions Lead at Chainlink Labs, where he works with the world's largest banks, asset managers, and market infrastructures on bringing capital markets onchain. A decade at Citigroup – five years in investment banking and debt capital markets, then five more in product management building the actual rails – gives him a grounded view of the gap between TradFi reality and crypto's promises, and what it will take to close it. Why you should listen Charlie's path from Citi's product team to Chainlink is the perfect frame for this conversation. He's lived inside the legacy plumbing of capital markets and now spends his days helping institutions migrate workflows to blockchain rails without throwing out the existing infrastructure they're built on. His explanation of Chainlink itself is refreshingly concrete: not a competing L1, but the middleware connecting blockchains to each other and to the offchain world – an oracle network at its core, expanded into a full orchestration layer via the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE). The "give us an API and we'll connect you securely to the blockchain ecosystem" framing is exactly how Chainlink keeps showing up in the headlines alongside DTCC, Swift, UBS, Euroclear, JPMorgan, BNY Mellon and Franklin Templeton. The tokenization discussion is where Charlie shines. The popular narrative is "tokenize everything"; his lived experience is that the interesting frontier is tokenizing cash. Stablecoins are becoming foundational market infrastructure because instant settlement is too compelling to ignore, but they don't work on a bank's balance sheet – under GENIUS Act rules, stablecoins must be backed one-for-one with HQLA, meaning banks lose the benefit of fractionalized reserves. That's why tokenized deposits are now the hottest conversation in institutional finance: same rails, same settlement story, but compatible with how banks actually run their balance sheets. Charlie also pushes back on the tokenized equities hype, arguing that "mirror tokenization" of stocks bolts complexity onto an already complex system (corporate actions, final settlement, CSD reconciliation), and that the real unlock comes only after cash is natively onchain. At that point native equity and debt issuance starts to make sense on its own terms. Andy and Charlie dig into the harder questions: where the institutional friction actually lives (legal, compliance, security, operational integration – not the business case, which everyone now buys), how procurement teams trained on on-prem-to-cloud transitions are now having to wrap their heads around decentralized infrastructure, and why Chainlink's defense-in-depth architecture – independent node operators, cryptographic consensus, geographic redundancy – is what lets GSIBs sign off on production deployments. Charlie pulls in the standards-and-scale argument with sharp historical analogies: rail gauges for industrialisation, standardised shipping containers for global trade, US GAAP for capital allocation, TCP/IP for the internet. Financial markets need standards before they can scale, and no institution wants to integrate ten different blockchains ten different ways. The hot take round delivers a multi-chain opportunist stance, a contrarian view on tokenised equity headlines, a 10-year vision in which blockchain rails disappear entirely from the user experience, and a callout to the recent DTCC Collateral AppChain announcement – built on Chainlink's CRE, slated for Q4 2026 – as the first glimpse of an onchain capital markets future that's already arriving.

Tony was excited to sit down with Dana D'Auria, who recently joined Franklin Templeton's RIA Advisory Council as an Industry Leader. This newly formed group has enabled the firm to work together to help shape how private markets are evolving in the RIA Channel. In this episode Tony and Dana tackle important structural considerations around liquidity, valuation, and the limitations of so-called "semi-liquid" investments, while emphasizing the untapped potential of private equity, private credit, and real assets in enhancing client outcomes. They discuss how technology platforms and model-based approaches can help advisors scale their practices while maintaining their core value proposition: providing clients access to sophisticated investment strategies that would otherwise be out of reach. This is an essential listen for advisors looking to navigate the operational complexities of private markets and deliver differentiated value to their clients.

Welcome back to the Alt Goes Mainstream podcast.Today's episode brings commercial real estate credit investing to life with someone who has real estate in his blood. Michael Comparato's grandfather started building single-family homes in upstate New York in 1946. He built his first shopping center in 1958. Michael was born into a family where he was on construction sites from a young age. At 13, he was doing landscaping. At 15, he was hanging drywall. Today, Michael is a Senior Managing Director, Head of Real Estate and Portfolio Manager with Benefit Street Partners, as well as Chief Executive Officer of Franklin BSP Realty Trust, Inc (NYSE: FBRT). He also serves on the US Executive Committee.Prior to joining BSP in 2015, Michael was Head of U.S. Equity Investments at Ladder Capital. Before that, he was President at Bank Atlantic Commercial Mortgage Capital.Benefit Street Partners is part of Franklin Templeton's family of specialists in private markets. BSP is a specialized private credit firm with over $92B in AUM. The firm manages a wide range of private credit strategies, including direct lending, special situations, commercial real estate debt, infrastructure debt, asset-backed finance, structured credit, and liquid credit. It also manages a non-traded Business Development Company and publicly-listed mortgage REIT.Since BSP was acquired by Franklin Templeton in 2019, it has partnered with the $1.7T investment manager to expand how it structures various products and funds, enabling more access to the private credit asset class for wealth investors.From his perch as the Head of BSP's Real Estate business, Michael has the perspective of how one of the industry's scaled real estate investment firms is approaching commercial real estate credit and where the firm sees opportunity. Michael and I had a fascinating conversation about the evolution of CRE credit and why now might be an interesting time in the CRE credit space. We covered:Why CRE, why now.What bank retrenchment means for CRE credit investors today.The relative resilience of multi-family.The maturity wall myth.Is the “extend and pretend” activity a reality?How AI impacts commercial real estate.Thanks Michael for sharing your passion, wisdom, and expertise on commercial real estate credit.Show Notes00:00 Meet Michael Comparato01:17 Real Estate Roots03:25 Early Lessons and Purpose03:35 Hurricanes And Tenants05:05 Story Over Spreadsheet06:49 Why Origination Wins08:43 Family Business Ethos10:59 Trust And Transparency11:27 Lending Through Covid13:05 Structuring For Uncertainty13:56 Boom Times Underwriting Shifts16:54 Crowded Class A Trade18:19 Are Values Fair Today21:46 Operator Shakeout23:59 Scale and Market Structure26:16 Banks Pull Back Credit27:59 Private Credit Fills Gap29:24 Who Holds Last Dollar Risk29:29 Returns and Competition30:35 Competition Compresses Yields30:58 Maturity Wall Myth33:05 How Investors Bucket Credit36:04 Wealth Channel Opportunity37:49 Why Credit Beats Equity Now41:58 Megatrends and AI Fears44:40 Shelter and Multifamily Focus46:11 Community and Social Real Estate48:16 Real Estate Constant Evolution51:06 CRE Credit vs Direct Lending53:21 Final Wrap and OutroA Word from Our Sponsor, UltimusThis episode of Alt Goes Mainstream is brought to you by Ultimus, the full-service fund administrator and transfer agent powering asset managers in private and public markets.

Richard Law-Deeks is Chief Executive Officer of LGPS Central, which, following its current expansion, will be responsible for over 100 bn GBP in pooled local authority pension fund assets. Prior to joining LGPS Central in 2024 he was CEO of the Royal Mail Pensions Trustees Ltd. and prior to that held a series of financial roles, mostly within the local government sphere. We start our discussion with his early study of political science and the rooting in public service that came from his parents. We hear then about his various stepping stones to his current role, many of which involved steep learning curves, change - of both the positive (expansion) and negative (contraction) variety and the public service driver that underpinned many of them. We move then to his current role at LGPS Central, itself the center of huge structural change and we discuss in detail the governance complexities that the new structures present, but hear from Richard why he is very optimistic about the new provisions. We reflect on the enduring appeal of public service, the importance of coaching and what he considers to be his own leadership style. This is a rich and multi-layered discussion that is an honest assessment of the uncertainties that present a moments of great change and the tactics to push through them. This podcast is kindly sponsored by Benefit Street Partners and PIMCO. Founded in 2008, Benefit Street Partners – BSP – is Franklin Templeton's specialised private credit manager with $92 billion in assets under management.  The firm provides a wide range of private credit strategies across the US, Europe, Middle East and Asia Pacific, including direct lending, special situations, commercial real estate debt, infrastructure debt, asset backed finance, structured credit and liquid credit.  PIMCO (Pacific Investment Management Company LLC) is a premier global investment management firm founded in 1971, specializing in active fixed-income with over $2 trillion in assets under management.

Ami Galani is Co-founder and Managing Partner of Tipt Ventures, a venture capital firm investing in companies “reimagining sports, starting with her”. She is a board member of Beauty by Imagination BB, a PE backed beauty platform, a strategic advisor to Elysian Park Ventures, a venture capital firm backed by the ownership group of the LA Dodgers and holds a number of other board roles. She spent over 10 years at Dick's Sporting Goods where she focused on identifying M&A, investment and other strategic or non-traditional opportunities to enhance the Dick's athlete experience and drive Dick's long-term strategy.Our conversation is a tour through the dynamic world of women's sports, and starts with Ami's own evolution from working on the legal side of transactions to taking the lead on deals herself. We speak about the mentorship and trust by others that is required for this to take place and examine the factors that make investing in women's sports so compelling.

Richard Tomlinson is Chief Investment Officer at Local Pensions Partnership Investments. He was previously head of portfolio advisory and partner at Albourne, where he spent over 6 years, and prior to that managed was Head of Multi Strategy and Absolute Return at Old Mutual Asset Managers. This podcast builds on the themes recently shared in the Always a Pensions Angle collaboration which featured Richard. We begin our conversation with Richard's diverse educational background and how he was interested in particular in entrepreneurship, some of which sprang from his family upbringing. We speak about how that influenced his later moves into other organizations and the creative mindset that followed. Moving then to his focus at the helm of the investment team at LPPI we discuss the recent expansion of the partnership and the challenges and opportunities that it represents. With the new mission statement "Together, Let's Do More" we speak about what that "More" will entail and how in particular the advisory role will be built out and the new responsibilities assumed.Governance, accountability and stakeholder interests feature strongly in this discussion as do the realities of embarking upon a set of new frontiers.This podcast is kindly sponsored by Benefit Street Partners and PIMCO.

Carolina (Carol) Strobel, is based in Sao Paolo and a founding partner at Antler Brasil. She is also a Founder and Operational Partner at Redpoint eventures and holds a number of Board Roles, including of public companies in Brazil. Our conversation starts with her original career as a lawyer, and how the deal-level detail naturally led her towards venture investing. We speak then about the venture capital ecosystem in Brazil and Latin America more generally and the areas where a venture capital investor can truly add value - sometimes it is more about being a "whatsapp" away rather than formal board responsibilities. We speak about the challenge of becoming visible in certain finance settings and how it is important to trust one's skillset and expertise and let that be the basis to lose the imposter syndrome. Moving then to board roles, Carol discusses the importance of boards changing with the times and sometimes being "rebooted" in order to cope with change when it comes to technology and new business models. This is where expert technical knowledge comes in. This podcast is kindly sponsored by Benefit Street Partners and PIMCO.

This podcast audio was accidentally posted yesterday, so you might want to listen to our 4/29 episode, if you've already heard this one.A listener-inspired revisit of emerging markets investing—sparked by the legacy of Mark Mobius—highlights why most investors are dramatically underexposed to this critical asset class. Don and Tom explain that while emerging markets bring higher volatility and currency risk, they also offer diversification, access to faster-growing economies, and exposure you simply can't get from U.S. multinationals alone. The conversation reinforces a core principle: proper global diversification matters more than chasing returns, and for most investors, owning a broadly diversified fund is far more practical than trying to build a perfectly balanced portfolio piece by piece. Listener questions then tackle currency risk (don't worry about it) and expose the dangers of “hodgepodge” portfolios built from random ETF ideas—ending with a strong case for simplicity, discipline, and knowing the purpose behind every dollar invested.0:05 Long-forgotten topic returns: emerging markets investing0:26 Tribute to Mark Mobius and his emerging markets legacy1:00 Why most investors have never heard of him2:02 What emerging markets actually are (and why they feel risky)2:43 Franklin Templeton era and historical performance claims3:26 Efficient market skepticism vs. boots-on-the-ground investing3:42 The real issue: investors massively underweight emerging markets4:59 Long-term returns and the case for inclusion5:57 Volatility, crises, and why diversification still wins6:53 Portfolio reviews reveal almost no EM exposure7:25 The S&P 500 problem: what you're missing globally8:29 Why all-in-one funds (AVGE, DFAW) simplify everything9:40 Listener question: currency risk in international investing11:04 “We own international… right?” portfolio reality check12:16 Currency swings explained (and why you shouldn't obsess)13:55 Japan's lost decades as a diversification lesson15:24 Why global companies ≠ true international exposure17:53 RV nostalgia and listener banter19:21 $17K “play account” turns into portfolio chaos21:55 ETF overload and CNBC-driven investing behavior23:35 Why the portfolio has no coherent strategy24:36 Simple fix: target-date or total market approach25:13 The myth of “play money” in investing26:01 Complexity makes bad portfolios worse over time26:53 Why Talking Real Money stays audio-only27:33 Growth update and listener appreciationQuestions?

Michael Davis, is Head of Global Retirement Strategy at T. Rowe Price and former Deputy Assistant Secretary at the U.S. Department of Labor (2009–2012),  and will be retiring in May of 2026. He has had a long career in finance interspersed with spells of public service, including in particular a role as Assistant Secretary in the US Department of Labor, from 2009 to 2012. He has a Masters in Public Policy from Harvard and remains committed to the study of global leadership as well as the promotion of opportunity.Our conversation starts with Michael's non-traditional path into finance, and his upbringing in the south. We learn what drew him to finance, and the strong underpinning of service that is a thread throughout.  Michael explains how translating between different worlds shaped his leadership philosophy of dignity, integrity, and learning from ethical leaders and presidential biographies, citing Truman's view that certainty never fully arrives. He outlines T. Rowe Price's differentiated retirement platform- $1.8T managed with about two-thirds retirement-related, active target-date leadership, record-keeping for 2.5M participants, and 1.1M individual investors- and the value of combining stakeholder signals. His core beliefs include integrity, transparency, simple communication, diversification, and a balanced view of active and passive. Looking ahead, he highlights the unresolved challenge of decumulation and delivering trusted advice at scale, arguing defaults beat financial literacy alone, and emphasizing that asset managers ultimately “sell trust.”This podcast is kindly sponsored by Benefit Street Partners and PIMCO.
