Dear Shareholder:

Enclosed is the annual  report for the Franklin  Templeton  Global Trust for the
period ended October 31, 1995.

The three Franklin Templeton  International Currency Funds performed well during
the year under review when  compared  with  short-term  U.S.  dollar-denominated
instruments.  Total returns for the Global  Currency,  Hard  Currency,  and High
Income Currency Funds were 6.05%,  6.68%, and 8.90%,  respectively,  as shown in
the  Performance  Summaries on pages 14, 18, and 22.  According to a tracking of
250 U.S.  money market funds by Lipper  Analytical  Services,  Inc., the average
U.S.  dollar money market fund returned  5.32% over the same period.*  Thanks to
appreciation  of both the German mark and the German bond  market,  the Franklin
Templeton  German  Government  Bond Fund provided an impressive  total return of
18.28%, as shown in the Performance Summary on page 10.

Although the Global  Currency and Hard Currency  funds  provided  somewhat lower
returns than they have  delivered  in recent  years,  we are quite  pleased with
their  performance in light of the sharp rally in the dollar versus the Japanese
yen during the last six months of the fiscal year. Despite the fact that the yen
fell 17.3% against the dollar during that period,  the Global  Currency and Hard
Currency funds' returns for the same period were only slightly  negative (-1.65%
and -3.58%,  respectively),  thereby currently preserving the bulk of the higher
returns  achieved  in the  first  half  of the  fiscal  year.  Of  course,  past
performance is not predictive of future results.

The funds' continued strong performance  primarily reflects the dollar's ongoing
long-term downtrend against major foreign  currencies.  Another important factor
was the success of Templeton  Investment Counsel,  Inc., the funds' sub-adviser,
in placing  proportionately  larger  portions of the funds' assets in the better
performing  currencies of the period.  During the last six months of the period,
for example,  both the Global Currency and Hard Currency funds underweighted the
Japanese yen while overweighting the German mark, which  substantially  lessened
the impact of the dollar's sharp appreciation versus the yen during that time. A
more detailed  analysis of each fund's  performance is contained in the separate
sections of this report, as indicated in the Table of Contents on page 1.


*Includes reinvested dividends. It should be remembered that a currency fund
isn't the same as a money market fund because the value of its shares can change
every day, while a U.S. money market fund usually tries to keep a steady net
asset value of $1.00 per share. 

By the end of the reporting period, the funds' total net assets reached a record
level of more than $227,000,000.  Even more gratifying than this were the steady
inflows to the funds, which persisted  throughout the dollar's rally during much
of the  summer.  This  contrasted  with the early  history of the funds,  when a
significant  number of investors  perceived  them primarily as tools for playing
short-term  swings in the dollar.  Hopefully,  it is confirmation that the funds
have  "matured," and that investors and their advisors are beginning to view the
funds as sensible long-term  investments -- a form of diversification  which can
provide specific protection against weakness of the U.S. dollar.

In late 1994, a brief burst of optimism about the dollar surrounded the stunning
conservative   Republican   victories  in  Congress.   The  theory  was  that  a
Republican-controlled  Congress  might  stand a better  chance  of  achieving  a
balanced  budget,  adopting  pro-business  policies,  and  encouraging  domestic
savings.  Even under the proposed  Republican budget plan,  however,  a balanced
budget  would not be achieved  until 2002 -- two  presidential  election  cycles
away.  Hope for the best, I suggest,  but believe it when you see it.  Likewise,
initiatives to promote personal  savings are long overdue,  but it remains to be
seen whether American consumers,  when given the incentive to save more, will in
fact seize the opportunity. As they say, you can lead a horse to water...

In any case, we advise a healthy dose of skepticism and a corresponding  measure
of portfolio diversification. Often I am asked, "What if the dollar goes up?" My
answer, in all seriousness,  is, "Celebrate!" As Americans, most, if not all, of
our income and assets are in dollars, or are dollar-denominated,  and a stronger
dollar makes us all richer in a global sense. True, foreign currency-denominated
assets would suffer in dollar terms, but, the pain would be akin to what we feel
when,  in the course of the year,  our house does not burn down and we see, with
hindsight, the premium paid for our fire insurance policy as a loss. Which is to
say,  we're happy the insurance  proved to be  unnecessary.  Unfortunately,  the
"house" in which the dollar  resides has "burned"  more or less annually for the
past 25 years,  so "insurance"  probably isn't a bad idea,  despite  chances the
dollar might suddenly turn upward. Of course,  the fund's net asset value is not
insured or guaranteed.

With the U.S.  stock  market at all-time  highs and the bond  market  performing
strongly,  many investors have been searching for asset classes that might offer
some  meaningful  diversification  in the  event of a market  downturn.  Foreign
currency money markets,  given their low correlation with U.S. assets, may serve
as a distinct  class under these  circumstances.  Many  financial  advisors have
indicated  to me  that  they  are now  using  Franklin  Templeton  International
Currency Funds in client  portfolios for just this purpose.  In my opinion,  the
funds  continue to seek to achieve  their  primary  objective of providing  U.S.
investors with a convenient and  cost-effective  means of protecting  themselves
against  depreciation  of the U.S.  dollar.  And though the  dollar's  near-term
course remains uncertain,  I believe the fundamental economic factors behind its
long  slide are  still  firmly in place -- and so,  too,  the need for  currency
diversification.  It should be remembered,  of course,  that past performance is
not predictive of future results and that there are special risk  considerations
associated with investing in foreign currency funds related to market, currency,
economic, political, and other factors, as discussed in the prospectus.

As always, thank you for investing with us.

Yours sincerely,

Donald P. Gould
President
Franklin Templeton Global Trust


ECONOMIC OVERVIEW



During the year under  review,  foreign bond markets  followed the lead of their
U.S.  counterparts and experienced generally positive results. In November 1994,
U.S. bond prices were at their lowest level of the fiscal year,  with U.S. Gross
Domestic  Product (GDP) growing at an annual rate of 5.1%. When economic reports
released during early 1995 hinted that growth was slowing,  however, bonds began
a long rally culminating in June, as GDP growth slowed to an annual rate of only
1.3%. In July, the Federal Reserve Board,  acknowledging  this slower growth and
that inflation appeared to be moderating, cut the federal funds rate, from 6.00%
to 5.75%.  Shortly  afterward,  however,  government  statistics  indicated that
economic  growth  might be gaining  momentum  again in the third  quarter.  As a
result,  bond prices fell during early July before  staging a small rally in the
period from August through October.  Although third quarter growth was initially
estimated at an unexpectedly strong annual rate of 4.2%1,  monthly indicators of
inflation continued to show that price pressures were well contained.

Throughout the period, Japanese economic growth continued to be hurt by a strong
yen  and  weak  banking  system.  Japan's  slow-growing  annualized  GDP,  which
increased only 0.6% in the second quarter of 1995, is forecast to grow less than
1% for the entire year. This caused its  unemployment  rate to reach 3.2%, which
would be considered low in many Western countries,  but is very high by Japanese
standards.  In an effort to stimulate growth, the government  instituted several
spending  plans and cut the  discount  rate to only  0.50%.  Japanese  long-term
interest  rates,  after  declining to around 2.50% earlier this year,  ended the
Funds' fiscal year at 2.80%.


1. U.S. Department of Commerce, report on GDP dated
October 27, 1995.

The German economy was also adversely affected by a strong currency which forced
corporations to accept lower profit margins on foreign trade. The high-priced
mark also helped keep inflation low by alleviating pressure on wholesale prices.
Although the Bundesbank eased monetary policy in August by dropping the discount
rate to 3.5%, short-term rates can still be considered high in view of the
approximately 2% increase in consumer prices this year. The Bundesbank now
expects that Germany's economy will grow approximately 2.5% in 1995.

By the end of the fiscal year under review,  the U.S. economy was expanding at a
moderate  rate while  inflation  remained  subdued.  This  trend in the  world's
largest  economy could  foreshadow  the global trend for 1996. If this expansion
continues, upward pressure on prices in many industrialized countries may become
more likely.  However,  actual price  increases  remained  muted  compared  with
previous business cycles and, therefore, in our opinion, the Federal Reserve may
continue to lower  short-term  interest rates in the U.S., which might result in
further declines for long-term rates as well.


FRANKLIN TEMPLETON GERMAN GOVERNMENT BOND FUND

Your Fund's Objective:

The Franklin  Templeton German Government Bond Fund seeks long-term total return
through investment in a managed portfolio of German government bonds.

In  seeking  to  maximize  returns  during the  fiscal  year  under  review,  we
emphasized two investment strategies. The first was to allocate a larger portion
of the portfolio to issuers other than the German  federal  government,  and the
second was to make a slight increase in the Fund's duration.1

Over the  course  of the  year,  we  reduced  our  holdings  of  German  federal
government bonds,  from more than 40% of total net assets to approximately  19%,
and replaced  them with  highly-rated  German  mark-denominated  bonds issued by
other  government  entities.  Issuers  included  agencies of the German  federal
government,   governments   outside  Germany  that  issue  AAA-rated   Eurobonds
denominated  in marks,  and German state  governments.  On October 31, 1995, our
largest class of holdings was German state  government  bonds,  whose allocation
increased to  approximately  40%, from 20% of total net assets.  Since all three
types of issues provided a yield premium over German federal  government  bonds,
met our standards  for liquidity and security,  and helped the Fund meet certain
diversification  tests mandated by the Internal  Revenue Code, we expect to hold
them for the long term.

In a further attempt to improve total return, we used incoming cash and proceeds
from sales of shorter-dated government bonds, to purchase bonds maturing between
2000 and 2002. From a total return perspective, we believed this area on the
yield curve may be most attractive. This lengthened the Fund's duration to 4.3
years from 4.1 years, compared with the 4.6-year duration of the unmanaged J.P.
Morgan German Government Bond Index.


1Duration is a measure of a portfolio's interest-rate risk. It is calculated by
converting all interest and principal payments due on the portfolio's bonds,
into a single, hypothetical zero-coupon bond having a maturity date with the
same risk exposure to interest-rate changes as the entire portfolio. 

Looking forward,  we believe that Germany's economy may remain relatively stable
for the near future and expect no changes in monetary policy while both economic
growth and inflation  increase slightly.  However,  extensive tax cuts scheduled
for the  beginning of 1996 should  increase  demand from the German  consumer at
some  point,  and as  growth  accelerates,  interest  rates may begin to rise in
anticipation of the Bundesbank's tightening of monetary policy.

Shareholders  should remember that investing in a  non-diversified  portfolio of
foreign  government  obligations  involves  special  risks,  such  as  increased
susceptibility  to  currency  fluctuations,   market  volatility,   and  adverse
economic,  social  and  political  developments,  as  discussed  in  the  fund's
prospectus. This fund may not be appropriate for all investors and should not be
considered a complete investment program.

Performance Summary

The Franklin  Templeton  German  Government Bond Fund provided a total return of
+18.28% for the one-year  period ended October 31, 1995.  Total return  measures
the change in value of an  investment,  assuming  reinvestment  of dividends and
capital gains, and does not include the initial sales charge.

The fund's share price, as measured by net asset value, increased from $13.26 on
October 31,  1994,  to $14.31 on October  31,  1995.  During  this same  period,
shareholders received  distributions totaling 119.2 cents ($1.192) per share, of
which 69.2 cents ($0.692)  represented  regular  dividend  income and 50.0 cents
($0.50)  represented a special year-end  ordinary income dividend  distribution.
Based on the  maximum  offering  price of $14.75 on  October  31,  1995,  and an
annualization  of the most recent  monthly  dividend of 6.1 cents  ($0.061)  per
share, the fund's  distribution  rate was 4.96%. Of course,  past performance is
not  predictive of future  results,  and  distributions  will vary  depending on
income earned by the fund,  currency gains and losses,  and any profits realized
from the sale of portfolio securities.

The graph on page 10 compares the fund's  performance  since  inception with the
performance  of the unmanaged  Salomon  Brothers  German World  Government  Bond
Index,  which provides an indication of the performance of the German government
bond market.  Of course,  such  unmanaged  market  indices and mutual funds have
inherent  performance  differences.  Indices don't pay management  fees to cover
salaries of security  analysts or  portfolio  managers,  or pay  commissions  or
market spreads to buy and sell bonds. Unlike the unmanaged indices, mutual funds
are never 100% invested because they must have cash on hand to redeem shares. In
addition,  the fund's  performance  shown  includes  the maximum  initial  sales
charge,  all fund expenses and account  fees. If operating  expenses such as the
Franklin Templeton German Government Bond Fund's had been applied to this index,
its performance would have been lower. Please remember that an index is simply a
measure  of  performance,  and one  cannot  invest  in an index  directly.  Past
performance is not predictive of future results.

1.  Cumulative  total return shows the change in value of an investment over the
specified periods and does not include the maximum 3.0% initial sales charge.

2. Average annual total return  represents the average annual  increase in value
of an  investment  over the  specified  periods and  includes  the maximum  3.0%
initial sales charge.

3. All total return  calculations  reflect the deduction of a proportional share
of fund  expenses on an annual basis and assume that all  dividends  and capital
gains  distributions were reinvested when paid.  Investment return and principal
value will  fluctuate with market  conditions,  the German mark and the economic
and political  climate of Germany,  so that your shares,  when redeemed,  may be
worth more or less than their initial cost.  Past  performance is not predictive
of future results.

4.  Distribution rate is based on the maximum offering price of $14.75 per share
on October 31, 1995, and an annualization of the most recent monthly dividend of
6.1 cents ($0.061) per share.

5. Yield,  calculated  as  required by the SEC, is based on the  earnings of the
fund's  portfolio  during the 30 days ended October 31, 1995. The fund's manager
has agreed in advance to waive a portion of its management  fees,  which reduces
operating  expenses and increases  distribution  rate, yield and total return to
shareholders. Without this waiver, the fund's distribution rate and total return
would have been lower,  and yield for the period would have been 3.83%.  The fee
waiver may be  discontinued  at any time,  upon  notice to the  fund's  Board of
Trustees.


FRANKLIN TEMPLETON GLOBAL CURRENCY FUND

Your Fund's Objective:

The Franklin  Templeton  Global  Currency  Fund seeks to maximize  total return,
through a combination  of interest  income and currency  gains,  by investing in
interest-earning  money  market  instruments,  at  least  65% of  which  will be
denominated in three or more Major Currencies, including the U.S. dollar.

During the fiscal year under  review,  we varied the  holdings  of the  Franklin
Templeton Global Currency Fund from its benchmark position (one-third weightings
each in the local  currency  money  markets  of  Germany,  Japan and the  United
States) as we saw opportunities to increase the fund's return. The fund provided
a total return of +6.05% for the year,  as shown in the  Performance  Summary on
page  14,  compared  to a total  return  of  +1.22%  produced  by the  benchmark
portfolio.

At the beginning of the fiscal year,  the U.S.  dollar  enjoyed a rare period of
stability  against  the yen and mark.  It resumed  its  long-term  depreciation,
however,  after the Mexican  peso's  devaluation on December 20, 1994, and early
signs of possibly weaker 1995 U.S. growth.  Between late December and mid-April,
the dollar fell,  from 1.58 marks to 1.35 marks (14%) and from 101 yen to 80 yen
(21%).  Eventually,  this plunge  threatened a serious weakening of the Japanese
economy,  as their  products  became  priced out of the world  market and slower
growth deflated the value of their assets.  The U.S.  Treasury and other central
banks responded by selling yen for dollars, causing the dollar to reverse course
and appreciate 31% to nearly 105 yen in September.  Improvement against the mark
was not as  pronounced,  but the  dollar  reached  a high of 1.50  marks (an 11%
increase) in September before drifting back to 1.41 marks on October 31, 1995.

The fund was overweighted in dollars at the beginning of this period, a position
we soon  reversed  by  allocating  a larger  position  than usual to the yen. In
March,  as the yen  approached its highest  levels,  we lowered our exposure and
increased U.S. dollar positions  again.  Although we missed the end of the yen's
rally,  we felt that after such a strong  move,  it was time to take some profit
and look for other  opportunities.  On October 31, 1995, about 40% of the fund's
total net assets were denominated in marks, 20% in yen, 24% in U.S. dollars, and
16% in Australian dollars.

Looking forward to 1996, we expect fiscal reform to accompany  modest growth and
low  inflation  in many key  European  countries.  Japanese  growth is likely to
remain  sluggish,  but its  growing  export of  capital to other  markets  could
potentially   help  global  interest  rates  decline  further  and  continue  to
strengthen other currencies versus the dollar. We expect to maintain significant
positions in the currencies of Germany,  Japan and Australia.  We also expect to
have positions in Swiss francs and New Zealand  dollars to help us diversify the
portfolio while taking advantage of attractive potential opportunities.

There  are,  of course,  special  risk  considerations  associated  with  global
investing related to market, currency,  economic,  political, and other factors,
as discussed in the prospectus.  Because the fund's assets are largely  invested
in foreign  currencies,  there is potential  for  significant  gain or loss from
currency exchange rate fluctuations.  A non-diversified  foreign fund may not be
appropriate for all investors and should not be considered a complete investment
program.



GRAPHIC MATERIAL 3 OMMITTED - SEE APPENDIX AT END OF DOCUMENT


Although the fund's Statement of Investments on page 26 of this report indicates
that the fund held 74.4% of its portfolio investments in U.S. dollar-denominated
assets on October 31, 1995, its net exposure to the U.S. dollar on that date was
only  24.2%.  The  difference  is  explained  by the fund's  holdings of forward
currency exchange contracts (see Note 2 in the Notes to Financial  Statements on
page 36) calling for the purchase of various foreign  currencies in exchange for
U.S. dollars at various future dates. The combination of U.S. dollar instruments
with "long" forward  currency  exchange  contracts in essence creates a position
economically  equivalent to a money market instrument denominated in the foreign
currency itself.  Such combined positions are sometimes necessary when the money
market for a particular foreign currency is small or relatively illiquid.



Performance Summary

The Franklin  Templeton  Global  Currency Fund reported a total return of +6.05%
for the one-year period ended October 31, 1995. Total return measures the change
in value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital gains,
and does not include the initial sales charge.

The fund's share price, as measured by net asset value, decreased from $14.14 on
October 31,  1994,  to $13.67 on October  31,  1995.  During  this same  period,
shareholders received  distributions totaling 127.2 cents ($1.272) per share, of
which 63.2 cents ($0.632)  represented  regular  dividend  income and 64.0 cents
($0.64)  represented a special year-end  ordinary income dividend  distribution.
Based on the  maximum  offering  price of $14.09 on  October  31,  1995,  and an
annualization  of the most recent  monthly  dividend of 5.4 cents  ($0.054)  per
share, the fund's  distribution  rate was 4.60%. Of course,  past performance is
not  predictive of future  results,  and  distributions  will vary  depending on
income earned by the fund,  currency gains and losses,  and any profits realized
from the sale of portfolio securities.

The graph on this page compares the fund's  performance since inception with the
performance of the unmanaged  Salomon  Brothers  World Money Market Index.  This
index  provides  an  indication  of the  performance  of  the  U.S.  dollar  and
Eurocurrency  short-term sectors. It is important to note that an index does not
contain cash (the fund  generally  carries a certain  percentage  of cash at any
given time),  nor does it include sales charges or management  fees.  Also,  the
Franklin  Templeton Global Currency Fund's allocation of U.S. dollar instruments
is  generally  higher than the index's.  Other things being equal,  the fund may
therefore be expected to underperform the index during periods of dollar decline
and may outperform the index during periods of dollar strength.

The Salomon Brothers World Money Market Index is unmanaged and thus has inherent
performance  differences  compared with the fund.  Indices don't pay  management
fees to cover  salaries  of  security  analysts or  portfolio  managers,  or pay
commissions  or market  spreads to buy and sell bonds.  Unlike  indices,  mutual
funds  are never  100%  invested  because  they must have cash on hand to redeem
shares. In addition,  the fund's performance  includes the maximum initial sales
charge,  all fund expenses and account  fees. If operating  expenses such as the
Franklin  Templeton  Global Currency Fund's had been applied to this index,  its
performance  would have been lower.  Please  remember  that an index is simply a
measure  of  performance,  and one  cannot  invest  directly  in an index.  Past
performance is not predictive of future results.

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON HARD CURRENCY FUND


Your Fund's Objective:

The Franklin Templeton Hard Currency Fund seeks to protect  shareholders against
depreciation  of the U.S.  dollar  relative to other  currencies by investing in
high-quality, interest-bearing money market instruments (and forward contracts),
denominated in those Major  Currencies which  historically  have experienced low
rates of inflation, and which are currently pursuing economic policies conducive
to continued  low rates of inflation and currency  appreciation  versus the U.S.
dollar over the long term.

During the past year, we actively allocated the Franklin Templeton Hard Currency
Fund's assets against a benchmark  position  consisting of one-third  weightings
each in the local currency money markets of Germany, Japan and Switzerland. From
time to time we also invested in other money markets which we felt would enhance
the fund's performance. The fund provided a total return of +6.68% for the year,
as shown in the  Performance  Summary on page 18,  compared to a total return of
+3.65% produced by the benchmark portfolio.

At the beginning of the period,  the fund held a slightly above average position
in Swiss  francs  (39% of total  net  assets),  as well as  large  positions  in
Australian and New Zealand dollars (34% combined),  with correspondingly smaller
positions in yen and mark investments.  However,  we soon increased our holdings
of the  Japanese  and German  currencies  in seeking to take  advantage of their
sharp rallies,  as they attained "safe haven" status  following the Mexican peso
devaluation on December 20, 1994. In March,  when the yen approached its highest
levels,  we lowered its  percentage of the portfolio and increased our positions
in marks and Swiss  francs.  Although we missed the end of the yen's  rally,  we
felt that after such a strong move, it was time to take some profit and look for
other  opportunities.  Finally,  when this  rally was  brought  to an end by the
coordinated  intervention  against  the yen by the U.S.,  Japanese,  and  German
central  banks  during the second half of the fiscal  year,  we  reintroduced  a
significant  position in New Zealand dollars.  On October 31, 1995, about 35% of
the fund's total net assets were denominated in marks, 28% in Swiss francs,  22%
in yen, and 11% in New Zealand dollars.

Looking  forward,  we  expect  1996  to  feature  modest  economic  growth,  low
inflation,  and continued  fiscal reform in most  European  countries.  Although
growth in Japan is likely to remain  sluggish,  its growing export of capital to
other markets could help global  interest  rates decline  further.  We expect to
maintain  significant  positions in our core  currencies  of Germany,  Japan and
Switzerland,  as well as smaller  holdings in Australian or New Zealand dollars,
which will help us diversify the portfolio while taking  advantage of attractive
opportunities.

There  are,  of course,  special  risk  considerations  associated  with  global
investing related to market, currency,  economic,  political, and other factors,
as discussed in the prospectus.  Because the fund's assets are largely  invested
in foreign  currencies,  there is potential  for  significant  gain or loss from
currency exchange rate fluctuations.  A non-diversified  foreign fund may not be
appropriate for all investors and should not be considered a complete investment
program.


Although the fund's Statement of Investments on page 27 of this report indicates
that the fund held 66.4% of its portfolio investments in U.S. dollar-denominated
assets on October 31, 1995, its net exposure to the U.S. dollar on that date was
only  2.8%.  The  difference  is  explained  by the fund's  holdings  of forward
currency exchange contracts (see Note 2 in the Notes to Financial  Statements on
page 36) calling for the purchase of various foreign  currencies in exchange for
U.S. dollars at various future dates. The combination of U.S. dollar instruments
with "long" forward  currency  exchange  contracts in essence creates a position
economically  equivalent to a money market instrument denominated in the foreign
currency itself.  Such combined positions are sometimes necessary when the money
market for a particular foreign currency is small or relatively illiquid.


Performance Summary

The Franklin  Templeton Hard Currency Fund reported a total return of +6.68% for
the one-year period ended October 31, 1995.  Total return measures the change in
value of an investment,  assuming  reinvestment  of dividends and capital gains,
and does not include the initial sales charge.

The fund's share price, as measured by net asset value, decreased from $13.95 on
October  31,  1994 to $13.09 on  October  31,  1995.  During  this same  period,
shareholders received  distributions  totaling 168.0 cents ($1.68) per share, of
which 59.0 cents ($0.59)  represented  regular  dividend  income and 109.0 cents
($1.09)  represented a special year-end  ordinary income dividend  distribution.
Based on the  maximum  offering  price of $13.49 on  October  31,  1995,  and an
annualization  of the most recent  monthly  dividend of 5.3 cents  ($0.053)  per
share, the fund's  distribution  rate was 4.71%. Of course,  past performance is
not  indicative of future  results,  and  distributions  will vary  depending on
income earned by the fund,  currency gains and losses,  and any profits realized
from the sale of portfolio securities.

The graph on this page compares the fund's  performance since inception with the
performance of the unmanaged  Salomon  Brothers  World Money Market Index.  This
index  provides  an  indication  of the  performance  of  the  U.S.  dollar  and
Eurocurrency  short-term sectors. It is important to note that an index does not
contain cash (the fund  generally  carries a certain  percentage  of cash at any
given time),  nor does it include  sales charges or  management  fees.  Also, in
contrast  to the index,  the  Franklin  Templeton  Hard  Currency  Fund does not
generally  maintain a material  exposure to the U.S. dollar.  Other things being
equal, the fund may therefore be expected to outperform the index during periods
of dollar  decline  and may  underperform  the index  during  periods  of dollar
strength.


GRAPHIC MATERIAL 6 OMMITTED - SEE APPENDIX AT END OF DOCUMENT



The Salomon Brothers World Money Market Index is unmanaged and thus has inherent
performance  differences  compared with the fund.  Indices don't pay  management
fees to cover  salaries  of  security  analysts or  portfolio  managers,  or pay
commissions  or market  spreads to buy and sell bonds.  Unlike  indices,  mutual
funds  are never  100%  invested  because  they must have cash on hand to redeem
shares. In addition,  the fund's performance  includes the maximum initial sales
charge,  all fund expenses and account  fees. If operating  expenses such as the
Franklin  Templeton  Hard  Currency  Fund's had been applied to this index,  its
performance  would have been lower.  Please  remember  that an index is simply a
measure  of  performance,  and one  cannot  invest  directly  in an index.  Past
performance is not predictive of future results.

1.  Cumulative  total return shows the change in value of an investment over the

2. Average annual total return  represents  the average  annual  increase in the

initial sales charge.

3. All total return  calculations  reflect the deduction of a proportional share
of fund  expenses on an annual basis and assume that all  dividends  and capital
gains  distributions were reinvested when paid.  Investment return and principal
value will  fluctuate  with market  conditions,  currencies and the economic and
political  climate of countries where investments are made, so that your shares,
when redeemed,  may be worth more or less than their initial cost.  Past expense
reductions by the fund's  manager  increased  the fund's total return,  and past
performance is not predictive of future results.

4.  Distribution rate is based on the maximum offering price of $13.49 per share
on October 31, 1995, and an annualization of the most recent monthly dividend of
5.3 cents ($0.053) per share.

5. Yield,  calculated  as  required by the SEC, is based on the  earnings of the

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON HIGH INCOME CURRENCY FUND

Your Fund's Objective:

The Franklin  Templeton High Income  Currency Fund seeks to achieve high current
income at a level significantly above that available on U.S. dollar money market
funds by investing in interest-bearing  money market instruments  denominated in
Major  and  Non-Major  Currencies.  Subject  to  this  investment  objective,  a
secondary consideration of the fund is preservation of capital.

Under normal conditions,  the Franklin Templeton High Income Currency Fund keeps
at least 65% of its assets invested in instruments  denominated in three or more
of the ten highest-yielding  Major Currencies (as defined in the prospectus) and
in the U.S.  dollar.  On October 31, 1995,  those were the currencies of Canada,
the United Kingdom,  the Netherlands,  France,  Italy, Spain,  Denmark,  Sweden,
Australia,  and New Zealand.  During the fiscal year,  the fund, as shown in the
Performance  Summary on page 22,  provided a total  return of +8.90%,  while the
benchmark  portfolio,  consisting of investments  in the ten  currencies  listed
above, produced a total return of +3.11%.

Over the past twelve months, we maintained the fund's exposure to the currencies
of Australia,  New Zealand,  Germany,  the United Kingdom,  and the Netherlands,
while adjusting its holdings in other countries. Early in the year, for example,
we decreased our investments in Spanish pesetas,  Italian lira and Swedish krona
because of high rates of  inflation  and  unemployment  in those  countries.  By
year's end, however, we had re- invested in Spain and Italy, and added positions
in Denmark, as the economic and political  environments in those countries began
to improve.  We also added  attractively  valued assets in developing  countries
such as Thailand and the Czech Republic.

On October 31,  1995,  almost half the fund's  holdings  were  denominated  in a
combination  of  Australian  dollars,  Dutch  guilder and New  Zealand  dollars.
Approximately  one-quarter of the fund was  represented by investments in Danish
kroner,  French francs and British  pounds.  The remainder was split among seven
other countries, as shown in the chart on the following page.

Looking forward, we will continue to seek potential investment  opportunities in
economies with relatively  stable  currencies,  attractive  yields on short-term
debt instruments, and rapid Gross Domestic Product growth. There are, of course,
special risk considerations  associated with global investing related to market,
currency,   economic,   political,  and  other  factors,  as  discussed  in  the
prospectus.  Developing  markets  involve  heightened  risks related to the same
factors,  in addition to risks  associated  with the  relatively  small size and
lesser  liquidity  of these  markets.  Because  the fund's  assets  are  largely
invested in foreign currencies,  there is potential for significant gain or loss
from currency exchange rate fluctuations.  A non-diversified global fund may not
be  appropriate  for all  investors  and  should  not be  considered  a complete
investment program.

Although the fund's Statement of Investments on page 29 of this report indicates
that the fund held 41.5% of its portfolio investments in U.S. dollar-denominated
assets on October 31, 1995, its net exposure to the U.S. dollar on that date was
only  3.7%.  The  difference  is  explained  by the fund's  holdings  of forward
currency exchange contracts (see Note 2 in the Notes to Financial  Statements on
page 36) calling for the purchase of various foreign  currencies in exchange for
U.S. dollars at various future dates. The combination of U.S. dollar instruments
with "long" forward  currency  exchange  contracts in essence creates a position
economically  equivalent to a money market instrument denominated in the foreign
currency itself.  Such combined positions are sometimes necessary when the money
market for a particular foreign currency is small or relatively illiquid.


Performance Summary

The Franklin  Templeton  High Income  Currency  Fund  reported a total return of
+8.90% for the one-year period ended October 31, 1995. Total return measures the
change in value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of dividends and capital
gains, and does not include the initial sales charge.

The fund's share price, as measured by net asset value, decreased from $11.59 on
October 31,  1994,  to $11.56 on October  31,  1995.  During  this same  period,
shareholders received  distributions  totaling 98.9 cents ($0.989) per share, of
which 64.9 cents ($0.649)  represented  regular  dividend  income and 34.0 cents
($0.34)  represented a special year-end  ordinary income dividend  distribution.
Based on the  maximum  offering  price of $11.92 on  October  31,  1995,  and an
annualization  of the most recent  monthly  dividend of 5.2 cents  ($0.052)  per
share, the fund's  distribution  rate was 5.23%. Of course,  past performance is
not  indicative of future  results,  and  distributions  will vary  depending on
income earned by the fund,  currency gains and losses,  and any profits realized
from the sale of portfolio securities.

The graph  above  compares  the  fund's  performance  since  inception  with the
performance of the unmanaged  Salomon  Brothers  World Money Market Index.  This

Eurocurrency  short-term sectors. It is important to note that an index does not
contain cash (the fund  generally  carries a certain  percentage  of cash at any

the higher-yielding currencies in which the fund invests are not included in the

part, on how such  higher-yielding  currencies  perform relative to those in the

fund's  portfolio  during the 30 days ended October 31, 1995. The fund's manager
has agreed in advance to waive a portion of its management  fees,  which reduces
operating  expenses and increases  distribution  rate, yield and total return to
shareholders. Without this waiver, the fund's distribution rate and total return
would have been lower,  and yield for the period would have been 4.85%.  The fee
waiver may be  discontinued  at any time,  upon  notice to the  fund's  Board of
Trustees.

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON GLOBAL TRUST

Notes to Financial Statements 


1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin  Templeton  Global Trust (the Trust),  (prior to November 15, 1993, the
Huntington  Funds) is an open-end  management  investment  company (mutual fund)
registered  under  the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940 as  amended.  The Trust
currently  has four  separate  non-diversified  funds (the  Funds) in  operation
consisting of: Franklin  Templeton German  Government Bond Fund (the German Bond
Fund),  Franklin  Templeton  Global  Currency Fund (the Global  Currency  Fund),
Franklin  Templeton  Hard Currency Fund (the Hard Currency  Fund),  and Franklin
Templeton  High Income  Currency Fund (the High Income Fund).  Each of the Funds
issues a separate series of the Trust's shares and maintains a totally  separate
Investment portfolio.

Effective May 1, 1994,  the Funds changed their fiscal year end from April 30 to
October 31.

The  following  is a summary of  significant  accounting  policies  consistently
followed by the Funds in the  preparation  of their  financial  statements.  The
policies are in conformity  with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for
investment companies.

A. Security Valuation:  Portfolio  securities listed on a securities exchange or
on the NASDAQ  National  Market System for which market  quotations  are readily
available are valued at the last quoted sale price of the day or, if there is no
such  reported  sale,  within the range of the most recent  quoted bid and asked
prices.  Other securities for which market  quotations are readily available are
valued at current market values, obtained from pricing services, which are based
on a variety of factors, including recent trades,  institutional size trading in
similar  types of  securities  (considering  yield,  risk and  maturity)  and/or
developments  related to specific  securities.  Portfolio  securities  which are
traded both in the  over-the-counter  market and on a  securities  exchange  are
valued according to the broadest and most representative market as determined by
the Franklin Advisers, Inc. Other securities for which market quotations are not
available,  if any, are valued in accordance with procedures  established by the
Board of Trustees.

The value of a foreign  security is determined as of the close of trading on the
foreign  exchange on which it is traded or as of the close of trading on the New
York Stock Exchange,  if that is earlier,  and that value is then converted into
its U.S. dollar  equivalent at the foreign  exchange rate in effect at noon, New
York time,  on the day the value of the foreign  security is  determined.  If no
sale is reported at that time,  the mean between the current bid and asked price
is used. Occasionally,  events which affect the values of foreign securities and
foreign  exchange rates may occur between the times at which they are determined
and the close of the  exchange  and will,  therefore,  not be  reflected  in the
computation  of the Fund's net asset  value,  unless  material.  If events which
materially  affect  the value of these  foreign  securities  occur  during  such
period,  then these  securities  will be valued in  accordance  with  procedures
established by the Board of Trustees.

The fair values of securities  restricted as to resale,  if any, are  determined
following procedures established by the Board of Trustees.

B. Income Taxes:  The Trust intends to continue to qualify for the tax treatment
applicable to regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code and
to make the requisite distributions to its shareholders which will be sufficient
to relieve it from income taxes. Therefore, no income tax provision is required.
Each Fund is treated as a separate  entity in the  determination  of  compliance
with the Internal Revenue Code.

C. Security  Transactions:  Security  transactions are accounted for on the date
the securities are purchased or sold (trade date).  Realized gains and losses on
security transactions are determined on the basis of specific identification for
both financial statement and income tax purposes.

Net realized  capital  gains or losses  differ for  financial  statement and tax
purposes primarily due to differing treatments of wash sale and realized gain or
loss on foreign currency transactions.



Notes to Financial Statements (cont.)


1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

D.  Investment  Income,   Expenses  and   Distributions:   Dividend  income  and
distributions  to shareholders  are recorded on the ex-dividend  date.  Interest
income and estimated  expenses are accrued  daily.  Bond  discount,  if any, are
amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code.

Distributions from undistributed net investment income, and net realized capital
gains from security  transactions,  to the extent they exceed available  capital
loss carryovers,  are generally made during each year to avoid the 4% excise tax
imposed on regulated investment companies by the Internal Revenue Code.

Net investment income differs for financial statement and tax purposes primarily
due  to  differing   treatments  of  realized   gain/loss  on  foreign  currency
transactions.

E. Expense Allocation: Common expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated among
the Funds  based on the ratio of net  assets  of each Fund to the  combined  net
assets. In all other respects,  expenses are charged to each Fund as incurred on
a specific identification basis.

F.  Foreign  Currency  Translation:  The  accounting  records  of the  Trust are
maintained in U.S.  dollars.  All assets and liabilities  denominated in foreign
currencies  are  translated  into U.S.  dollars at the rate of  exchange of such
currencies  against U.S.  dollars on the date of the  valuation.  Purchases  and
sales of securities,  income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange
quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded.

The Trust does not isolate that portion of the results of  operations  resulting
from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from fluctuations  arising
from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included
with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported  net  realized  foreign  exchange  gains or losses arise from sales and
maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains
or losses  realized  between the trade date and  settlement  dates on securities
transactions,  the difference  between the amounts of dividends,  interest,  and
foreign  withholding  taxes  recorded on the Trust's  books and the U.S.  dollar
equivalent  of  the  amounts   actually   received  or  paid.   Net   unrealized
appreciation/depreciation  on translation of assets and liabilities  denominated
in foreign  currencies arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities
other than  investments  in securities at the end of the period,  resulting from
changes in exchange rates.


2. FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS

A forward  currency  contract,  which is  individually  negotiated and privately
traded by currency traders and their  customers,  is a commitment to purchase or
sell a specific currency for an agreed-upon price at a future date.

The Funds may enter into forward  contracts with the objective of minimizing the
risk to the Funds from adverse changes in the relationship between currencies or
to enhance  Fund  value.  The Funds may also enter  into a forward  contract  in
relation to a security  denominated in a foreign currency or when it anticipates
receipt in a foreign  currency of  dividends  or interest  pay-ments in order to
"lock in" the U.S. dollar price of a security or the U.S.  dollar  equivalent of
such dividend or interest payments.

Any gain or loss  realized  from a forward  currency  contract  is recorded as a
realized  gain or loss  from  investments.  See the  accompanying  Statement  of
Operations for the Funds' total realized  gains or losses from  investments  for
the year ended October 31, 1995.

The Funds segregated  sufficient  cash, cash  equivalents or readily  marketable
debt securities as collateral for commitments created by open forward contracts.
The Funds could be exposed to risk if counterparties to the contracts are unable
to meet the terms of their  contracts  or if the value of the  foreign  currency
changes unfavorably.

3. UNAMORTIZED ORGANIZATION COSTS

The organization  costs of the Funds are amortized on a straight line basis over
a period  of five  years  from the  effective  date of  registration  under  the
Securities  Act of 1933 for each Fund. In the event the initial  shareholder  or
its  transferee  redeems its shares  within the five-year  period,  the pro-rata
share of the then-unamortized  deferred organization costs will be deducted from
the redemption price paid to such shareholder.  New investors  purchasing shares
of the Funds  subsequent  to that date bear such costs  during the  amortization
period only as such charges are accrued daily against investment income.

8. CREDIT RISK

Although each of the Funds has a non-diversified investment portfolio, there are
certain credit risks,  foreign currency  exchange risk, or event risk due to the
manner in which  the  Funds are  invested,  which  may  subject  the Funds  more
significantly to economic changes occurring in certain industries or sectors, as
follows:

       The Global Currency Fund has investments in excess of 10% of net assets
       in debt securities denominated in German deutschmarks.

       The Hard Currency Fund has investments in excess of 10% of net assets in
       debt securities denominated in German deutschemarks. The High Income Fund
       has investments in excess of 10% of net assets in debt securities
       denominated in Dutch guilders.

Although the German Bond Fund has a non-diversified  investment portfolio,  most
of its  investments  are in the securities of issuers in the country of Germany.
Such  concentration  may  subject the Fund to economic  changes  and/or  foreign
exchange fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and German deutschemark  occurring
within that country.

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON GLOBAL TRUST

Report of Independent Accountants


To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees
of Franklin Templeton Global Trust:

We have audited the  accompanying  statements of assets and  liabilities  of the
various funds  comprising the Franklin  Templeton  Global Trust,  including each
Fund's statement of investments in securities and net assets,  as of October 31,
1995,  and the related  statements  of operations  for the year then ended,  the
statement  of changes in net assets and the  financial  highlights  for the year
ended  October 31,  1995 and six months  ended  October  31, 1994 and  financial
highlights  for the year ended April 30, 1994.  These  financial  statements and
financial  highlights  are the  responsibility  of the Trust's  management.  Our
responsibility  is to  express  an opinion  on these  financial  statements  and
financial  highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights of the Trust
for the  periods  ending  prior to May 1, 1993 were  audited by other  auditors,
whose  report,  dated June 11, 1993,  expressed an  unqualified  opinion on such
financial highlights.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance  about whether the financial  statements and financial  highlights are
free of material  misstatement.  An audit includes  examining,  on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement.  Our
procedures  included  confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 1995 by
correspondence  with custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion,  the financial  statements and financial  highlights referred to
above present fairly, in all material  respects,  the financial  position of the
various funds  comprising the Franklin  Templeton Global Trust as of October 31,
1995, the results of their  operations  for the year then ended,  the changes in
their net assets and their  financial  highlights for the year ended October 31,
1995 and the six months ended October 31, 1994 and financial  highlights for the
year ended April 30, 1994,  in conformity  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles.
