    Franklin Gold and Precious Metals Fund
    Franklin High Income Trust

    Templeton Global Investment Trust
    Templeton Income Trust
    Templeton Institutional Funds

    And the Boards of Directors and Management of:

    Templeton Dragon Fund, Inc.

    We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying Management Statement Regarding Compliance with Certain Provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, that the Funds listed in Attachment A (the “Funds”) complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“the Act”) (the “specified requirements”) as of July 31, 2025. The Funds’ management is responsible for its assertion and the Funds' compliance with the specified requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about the Funds' compliance with the specified requirements based on our examination.

    Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we plan and perform the examination to obtain reasonable assurance about whether management’s assertion about compliance with the specified requirements is fairly stated, in all material respects. An examination involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about whether management’s assertion is fairly stated in all material respects. The nature, timing and extent of the procedures selected depend on our judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of management’s assertion, whether due to fraud or error. We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

    [PWC Logo]

    Included among our procedures were the following tests performed as of July 31, 2025, and with respect to agreement of security purchases and sales or maturities, for the periods as indicated in Attachment A:

    - Confirmation of all securities held by Franklin Templeton Investors Services, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”), as they pertain to the security positions owned by the Funds and held in book entry form

    - Reconciliation of all such securities to the books and records of the Funds and the Transfer Agent

    - Agreement of 309 security purchases and 336 security sales or maturities since our last report from the books and records of the Funds to the records of the Transfer Agent confirmations

    Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Funds’ compliance with the specified requirements.

    We are required to be independent and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with relevant ethical requirements related to the engagement.

    In our opinion, management's assertion that the Funds complied with the requirements of subsections (b) and (c) of Rule 17f-2 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 as of July 31, 2025 with respect to securities reflected in the investment accounts of the Funds are fairly stated, in all material respects.

    This report is intended solely for the information and use of management and the Boards of Trustees or Boards of Directors of the Funds and the Securities and Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
