SHAREHOLDER LETTER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your Fund's Goal: Franklin Templeton Money Fund seeks to provide a high level of
current income, consistent with liquidity and preservation of capital. The Fund
invests all of its assets in the shares of The Money Market Portfolio (the
Portfolio), which has the same investment objective. The Portfolio, in turn,
invests in various money market instruments such as U.S. government securities
and other U.S. dollar-denominated securities. The Fund attempts to maintain a
stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.(1)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Shareholder:
This annual report for Franklin Templeton Money Fund Trust covers the period
ended June 30, 2000.
The 12 months under review marked the U. S. economy's ninth year of expansion.
Consumer spending, which represents two-thirds of U.S. gross domestic product
(GDP), increased dramatically during the period, to its highest level in 17
years. Wage gains, unemployment at a 30-year low, and the much talked-about
wealth effect were key drivers to this increase. As a result, real GDP grew at
an annualized pace of 4.8% in the first quarter of 2000, well above the Federal
Reserve Board's (the Fed's) long-term growth target rate of 3.0%.
(1.) There is no assurance that the Fund's $1.00 per share price will be
maintained. An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
The dollar value, number of shares or principal value, and complete legal titles
of all portfolio holdings are listed in the Fund's Statement of Investments
(SOI). The SOI begins on page 6.

[PYRAMID GRAPHIC]
Seeking to curb growth to a more sustainable level and control inflation, the
Fed raised the federal funds target rate a total of 150 basis points (1.50%)
during the past 12 months. These short-term interest rate increases helped boost
the Fund's Class B shares' seven-day effective yield during the reporting period
from 3.95% on June 30, 1999, to 5.51% on June 30, 2000. Likewise, the Fund's
Class C shares' seven-day effective yield rose from 4.01% to 5.63% over the same
period.
In June 2000, it appeared the Fed's action was having little effect on the
strong economy, as the second quarter GDP rose by an annualized 5.2% and the
majority of economic indicators pointed to an economy that was on the verge of
overheating. Despite this, during the final three months of the period under
review, we also began to see some signs that the fast pace of economic growth
might ease in the future. Consumer spending, housing starts, inflation as
measured by the Consumer Price Index, as well as other economic indicators
suggested possible slower growth.
Looking forward, we are optimistic that the economy will moderate, but are
nonetheless concerned about inflation and the level of interest rates. Although
many people anticipate a slowdown and a soft landing, in our opinion it is
really too early to tell. Numerous Fed governors have cautioned against jumping
to any conclusions, and advised waiting for more data that would confirm the
slowdown or spark further tightening. Therefore, we will closely watch economic
reports to help anticipate future Fed actions.
We continue to invest the portfolio's assets in only the highest quality money
market securities. For example, on June 30, 2000, more than 75% of the
securities purchased for the portfolio carried a AA or higher long-term credit
rating by Standard & Poor's(R) and Moody's(R), two independent credit rating
agencies, with the balance rated A.(2) Consistent with the Fund's objective of
providing shareholders with a higher quality and conservative investment
vehicle, we do not invest the portfolio's cash in derivatives or other
potentially volatile securities that we believe involve undue risk.
We appreciate your support, welcome new shareholders and look forward to serving
your investment needs in the years ahead.
Sincerely,
/s/ Charles B. Johnson
Charles B. Johnson
Chairman
Franklin Templeton Money Fund Trust

*The seven-day effective yield assumes the compounding of daily dividends.
Annualized and effective yields are for the seven-day period ended 6/30/00. The
Fund's average weighted maturity was 59 days. Yield reflects fluctuations in
interest rates on portfolio investments, and Fund expenses.
Franklin Advisers, Inc., the Fund's administrator and the manager of the Fund's
underlying portfolio, has agreed in advance to waive a portion of its fees. If
the manager had not taken these actions, the portfolio's annualized and
effective yields for the period would have been 5.12% and 5.25%, respectively,
for Class B shares and 5.23% and 5.36%, respectively, for Class C shares. The
fee waiver may be discontinued at any time upon notice to the Fund's Board of
Trustees.
Past performance does not guarantee future results.

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON MONEY FUND
Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Franklin Templeton Money Fund Trust (the Trust) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end investment company,
consisting of one fund, the Franklin Templeton Money Fund (the Fund). The Fund
seeks high current income consistent with preservation of capital and liquidity.
The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in The Money Market Portfolio
(the Portfolio), which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as
a diversified, open-end investment company having the same investment objectives
as the Fund. The financial statements of the Portfolio, including the Statement
of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Fund's financial statements.
The following summarizes the Fund's significant accounting policies.
a. SECURITY VALUATION
The Fund holds Portfolio shares that are valued at its proportionate interest in
the net asset value of the Portfolio. As of June 30, 2000, the Fund owns 2.46%
of the Portfolio.
b. INCOME TAXES
No provision has been made for income taxes because the Fund's policy is to
qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and to
distribute substantially all of its taxable income.
c. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses
on security transactions are determined on a specific identification basis.
Income and estimated expenses are accrued daily. Dividends from net investment
income and capital gains or losses are normally declared daily. Such
distributions are reinvested in additional shares of the Fund.
Net investment income, other than class specific expenses, are allocated daily
to each class of shares based on the relative value of the settled shares of
each class. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated based on the
proportion of net assets of each class.
d. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the amounts of income and expense during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST
The Fund offers two classes of shares: Class B and Class C. Each class of shares
differs by its distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single
class and its exchange privilege.

Independent Auditors' Report
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE FRANKLIN TEMPLETON MONEY FUND
TRUST
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the statement of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Franklin Templeton Money Fund (the
"Fund") of the Franklin Templeton Money Fund Trust at June 30, 2000, the results
of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for
each of the two years in the period then ended and the financial highlights for
each of the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at June 30, 2000 by correspondence with the
custodian, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS
Notes to Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Money Market Portfolios (the Trust) is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end investment company, consisting of
two separate portfolios (the Portfolios). The shares of the Trust are issued in
private placements and are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of
1933. The Portfolios seek high current income consistent with preservation of
capital and liquidity.
The following summarizes the Portfolios' significant accounting policies.
a. SECURITY VALUATION:
Securities are valued at amortized cost which approximates value.
b. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS:
The Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements, which are accounted for as
a loan by the Portfolios to the seller, collateralized by securities which are
delivered to the Portfolios' custodian. The market value, including accrued
interest, of the initial collateralization is required to be at least 102% of
the dollar amount invested by the Portfolios, with the value of the underlying
securities marked to market daily to maintain coverage of at least 100%. At June
30, 2000, all outstanding repurchase agreements held by the Portfolios had been
entered into on that date.
c. INCOME TAXES:
No provision has been made for income taxes because each Portfolio's policy is
to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and
to distribute substantially all of its taxable income.
d. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES AND DISTRIBUTIONS:
Security transactions are accounted for on trade date. Realized gains and losses
on security transactions are determined on a specific identification basis.
Interest income and estimated expenses are accrued daily. Dividends from net
investment income and capital gains or losses are normally declared daily. Such
distributions are reinvested in additional shares of the Portfolios.
Common expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated among the Portfolios based
on the ratio of net assets of each Portfolio to the combined net assets. Other
expenses are charged to each Portfolio on a specific identification basis.
e. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES:
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the amounts of income and expense during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers and/or directors of
Franklin Advisers, Inc. (Advisers) and Franklin/Templeton Investor Services,
Inc. (Investor Services), the Portfolios' investment manager and transfer agent,
respectively, and of the Franklin Money Fund, the Institutional Fiduciary Trust,
the Franklin Templeton Money Fund Trust, and the Franklin Federal Money Fund.
The Portfolios pay an investment management fee to Advisers of .15% per year of
the average daily net assets of each Portfolio.
Advisers agreed in advance to waive management fees, as noted in the Statements
of Operations.
Included in professional fees are legal fees of $11,240 that were paid to a law
firm in which a partner of that firm was an officer of the Portfolios.

THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS
Independent Auditors' Report
TO THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF
THE MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIOS
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the statements of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of each of the portfolios constituting
The Money Market Portfolios (hereafter referred to as the "Portfolios") at June
30, 2000, the results of each of their operations for the year then ended, the
changes in each of their net assets for each of the two years in the period then
ended and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") are the responsibility of the Portfolios' management;
our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States,
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at June 30, 2000 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.
