About Gregory Johnson
Gregory Johnson, executive chairman at Franklin Resources, has spoken publicly about workplace culture, investing philosophy, and the platinum market. In a 2019 speech, he contrasted American and Japanese business cultures, describing TD Ameritrade as emphasizing work-life balance and individual benefit, while characterizing Japanese workplaces as having longer hours, formal breaks, and a group-oriented, long-term mentality. He has also discussed Benjamin Franklin's influence on his company, stating that Franklin's emphasis on frugality, simplicity, and staying the course applies to both investing and running a business. In earlier appearances, Johnson discussed the mutual fund industry and Franklin Templeton's global strategy, noting that the company had focused on building its business outside the United States for 25 years, particularly in countries with emerging middle classes. He also commented on post-financial crisis regulation, saying that while new legislation had slowed, the backlog of rule-writing had put pressure on regulatory bodies. Separately, as president and CEO of Wellgreen Platinum in 2014, Johnson described the company's progress in developing a platinum project in the Yukon and expressed a bullish outlook on platinum and palladium prices, citing falling mine supply and strong demand fundamentals.
