Franklin Templeton chief executive Jenny Johnson has urged caution over long-term investments in artificial intelligence financing, warning that increasingly complicated funding arrangements and rapid technological advances are making the sector harder to assess.
Speaking at the Milken Institute Asia Summit in Singapore on Friday, 9 October, Johnson highlighted the growing use of off-balance-sheet financing and supplier lending as technology companies expand their computing infrastructure. Although she sees opportunities in AI-related credit, she said she would favour shorter-term investments while the sector continues to evolve.
