                               GAIN FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE(R)

                               Franklin Templeton's distinct multi-manager
                               structure combines the specialized expertise of
                               three world-class investment management
                               groups--Franklin, Templeton and Mutual Series.

SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE          Each of our portfolio management groups operates
                               autonomously, relying on its own research and
                               staying true to the unique investment disciplines
                               that underlie its success.

                               FRANKLIN. Founded in 1947, Franklin is a
                               recognized leader in fixed income investing and
                               also brings expertise in growth- and value-style
                               U.S. equity investing.

                               TEMPLETON. Founded in 1940, Templeton pioneered
                               international investing and, in 1954, launched
                               what has become the industry's oldest global
                               fund. Today, with offices in over 25 countries,
                               Templeton offers investors a truly global
                               perspective.

                               MUTUAL SERIES. Founded in 1949, Mutual Series is
                               dedicated to a unique style of value investing,
                               searching aggressively for opportunity among what
                               it believes are undervalued stocks, as well as
                               arbitrage situations and distressed securities.

TRUE DIVERSIFICATION           Because our management groups work independently
                               and adhere to different investment approaches,
                               Franklin, Templeton and Mutual Series funds
                               typically have distinct portfolios. That's why
                               our funds can be used to build truly diversified
                               allocation plans covering every major asset
                               class.

RELIABILITY YOU CAN TRUST      At Franklin Templeton Investments, we seek to
                               consistently provide investors with exceptional
                               risk-adjusted returns over the long term, as well
                               as the reliable, accurate and personal service
                               that has helped us become one of the most trusted
                               names in financial services.

shareholders' capital and liquidity. The Fund invests through The Money Market

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This semiannual report for Franklin Templeton Money Fund covers the period ended
December 31, 2007.

PERFORMANCE OVERVIEW

Declining short-term interest rates during the period under review resulted in a
decrease in the Fund's yield. For the six-month reporting period, the Fund's
Class A, B, C and R shares' seven-day effective yields fell from 4.86%, 4.13%,
4.12% and 4.33% to 4.44%, 3.77%, 3.79% and 3.91%, respectively.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUND IS NOT INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT
INSURANCE CORPORATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY OR INSTITUTION. ALTHOUGH
THE FUND SEEKS TO PRESERVE THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT AT $1.00 PER SHARE, IT
IS POSSIBLE TO LOSE MONEY BY INVESTING IN THE FUND.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ECONOMIC AND MARKET OVERVIEW

The U.S. economy decelerated during the six-month period ended December 31,
2007. In the third quarter, gross domestic product (GDP) growth advanced at a
4.9% annualized rate, the fastest pace in four years. During the reporting
period, consumer spending and personal income supported economic expansion, but
signs of a slowing economy became evident as a number of indicators reflected a
housing market correction, financial market strains and softening business and
consumer spending, as well as upward inflation pressures from increasing food,
energy and commodity prices and a weaker dollar. In the fourth quarter, GDP
growth slowed to an estimated 0.6% annualized rate.

Oil prices exhibited continued volatility, reaching a historical high in
November. Core inflation, which excludes food and energy costs, rose modestly
for the period, signaling that inflation risk remains. For December 2007, core
inflation had a 12-month increase of 2.4%. 1 The Federal Reserve Board's (Fed's)
preferred measure of inflation, the core personal consumption expenditures price
index, reported a 12-month increase of 2.2%. 2

As investor uncertainty continued in the latter half of 2007, the Fed was
committed to act in an effort to restore normalcy to U.S. financial markets. The
Fed cut the discount rate (the Fed's interest rate charged to member banks) four
times, bringing the rate to 4.75%. It also lowered the federal funds target rate
three times. Minutes released from its December meeting, in which the Fed
lowered the federal funds target rate to 4.25%, cited an uncertain outlook for
economic growth and inflation and the need for the committee to be
"exceptionally alert to economic and financial developments."

Over the period, investors sought relative safety in short-term U.S. Treasuries,
Treasury yields declined and the yield curve steepened. Short-term, two- and
five-year yields declined significantly, with the two-year bill yielding 3.05%
at the end of December, down from 4.87% a year earlier. The 10-year U.S.
Treasury note ended December yielding 4.04%, compared with 5.03% at the
beginning of the period.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY

Consistent with our strategy, we invest, through the Portfolio, mainly in
high-quality, short-term U.S. dollar denominated money market securities of
domestic and foreign issuers, including bank obligations, commercial paper,
repurchase agreements and U.S. government securities. We maintain a
dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of 90 days or less. We seek to
provide shareholders with a high-quality, conservative investment vehicle; thus,
we do not invest the Fund's cash in derivatives or other relatively volatile
securities that we believe involve undue risk.

MANAGER'S DISCUSSION

We continued to invest the Portfolio's assets in high-quality money market
securities. For example, on December 31, 2007, 100% of the securities purchased
for the Portfolio carried short-term credit ratings of A-1 or P-1, or higher, by
independent credit rating agency Standard & Poor's or Moody's Investors
Service. 3

We appreciate your support, welcome new shareholders and look forward to serving
your investment needs in the years ahead.

Your Fund's Expenses

As a Fund shareholder, you can incur two types of costs:

o     Transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on Fund purchases and
      redemption fees; and

o     Ongoing Fund costs, including management fees, distribution and service
      (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. All mutual funds have ongoing
      costs, sometimes referred to as operating expenses.

The following table shows ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and can help
you understand these costs and compare them with those of other mutual funds.
The table assumes a $1,000 investment held for the six months indicated.

ACTUAL FUND EXPENSES

The first line (Actual) for each share class listed in the table provides actual
account values and expenses. The "Ending Account Value" is derived from the
Fund's actual return, which includes the effect of Fund expenses.

You can estimate the expenses you paid during the period by following these
steps. OF COURSE, YOUR ACCOUNT VALUE AND EXPENSES WILL DIFFER FROM THOSE IN THIS
ILLUSTRATION:

1.    Divide your account value by $1,000.
      IF AN ACCOUNT HAD AN $8,600 VALUE, THEN $8,600 / $1,000 = 8.6.

2.    Multiply the result by the number under the heading "Expenses Paid During
      Period."
      IF EXPENSES PAID DURING PERIOD WERE $7.50, THEN 8.6 X $7.50 = $64.50.

In this illustration, the estimated expenses paid this period are $64.50.

HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON WITH OTHER FUNDS

Information in the second line (Hypothetical) for each class in the table can
help you compare ongoing costs of investing in the Fund with those of other
mutual funds. This information may not be used to estimate the actual ending
account balance or expenses you paid during the period. The hypothetical "Ending
Account Value" is based on the actual expense ratio for each class and an
assumed 5% annual rate of return before expenses, which does not represent the
Fund's actual return. The figure under the heading "Expenses Paid During Period"
shows the hypothetical expenses your account would have incurred under this
scenario. You can compare this figure with the 5% hypothetical examples that
appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

Your Fund's Expenses (CONTINUED)

PLEASE NOTE THAT EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE TABLE ARE MEANT TO HIGHLIGHT ONGOING
COSTS AND DO NOT REFLECT ANY TRANSACTION COSTS, SUCH AS SALES CHARGES OR
REDEMPTION FEES. Therefore, the second line for each class is useful in
comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you compare total costs of
owning different funds. In addition, if transaction costs were included, your
total costs would have been higher. Please refer to the Fund prospectus for
additional information on operating expenses.

Franklin Templeton Money Fund Trust

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON MONEY FUND

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Franklin Templeton Money Fund Trust (Trust) is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as a diversified, open-end
investment company, consisting of one Fund, the Franklin Templeton Money Fund
(Fund). The Fund offers four classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C, and
Class R. Each class of shares differs by contingent deferred sales charges,
distribution fees, voting rights on matters affecting a single class and its
exchange privilege.

The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in The Money Market Portfolio
(Portfolio), which is registered under the 1940 Act as a diversified, open-end
investment company. The accounting policies of the Portfolio, including the
Portfolio's security valuation policies, will directly affect the recorded value
of the Fund's investment in the Portfolio. 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 closing net asset value of the Portfolio. As of December 31, 2007, the Fund
owns 3.74% of the Portfolio.

B. INCOME TAXES

No provision has been made for U.S. income taxes because it is the Fund's policy
to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code and
to distribute to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income and net
realized gains.

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 received from the Portfolio are normally declared daily. Distributions to
shareholders are determined according to income tax regulations (tax basis).
Distributable earnings determined on a tax basis may differ from earnings
recorded in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. These differences may be permanent or temporary.
Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts to reflect their
tax character. These reclassifications have no impact on net assets or the
results of operations. Temporary differences are not reclassified, as they may
reverse in subsequent periods.

Net investment income, other than class specific expenses, is allocated daily to
each class of shares based upon the relative value of the settled shares of each
class. Realized and unrealized

FRANKLIN TEMPLETON MONEY FUND

(CONTINUED)

gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the
relative proportion of net assets of each class. Differences in per share
distributions, by class, are generally due to differences in class specific
expenses.

D. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

E. GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and trustees are
indemnified by the Trust against certain liabilities arising out of the
performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of
business, the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, enters into contracts with service
providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Trust's maximum
exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims
that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Currently, the
Trust expects the risk of loss to be remote.

2. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

Commission ("SEC"), relating to certain practices in the mutual fund industry,
including late trading, market timing and marketing support payments to
securities dealers who sell fund shares ("marketing support"), Franklin
Resources, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"),
entered into settlements with certain of those regulators and governmental
entities. Specifically, the Company entered into settlements with the SEC, among
others, concerning market timing and marketing support.

On June 6, 2007, the SEC posted for public comment the proposed plan of
distribution for the market timing settlement. Once the SEC approves the final
plan of distribution, disbursements of settlement monies will be made promptly
to individuals who were shareholders of the designated funds during the relevant
period, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the settlement and plan.

5. REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS (CONTINUED)

In addition, the Company, as well as most of the mutual funds within Franklin
Templeton Investments and certain current or former officers, Company directors,
fund directors, and employees, have been named in private lawsuits (styled as
shareholder class actions, or as derivative actions on behalf of either the
named funds or Franklin Resources, Inc.). The lawsuits relate to the industry
practices referenced above.

The Company and fund management believe that the claims made in each of the
private lawsuits referenced above are without merit and intend to defend against
them vigorously. The Company cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome
of these lawsuits, nor whether they will have a material negative impact on the
Company. If it is determined that the Company bears responsibility for any
unlawful or inappropriate conduct that caused losses to the Trust, it is
committed to making the Trust or its shareholders whole, as appropriate.

6. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Fund adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB
Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an
Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" (FIN 48), on December 31, 2007. FIN 48
clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected to
be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 provides guidance on the measurement,
recognition, classification and disclosure of tax positions, along with
accounting for the related interest and penalties. The Fund has reviewed the tax
positions for each of the three open tax years as of June 30, 2007 and has
determined that the implementation of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on
the Fund's financial statements.

In September 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement"
(SFAS 157), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim
periods within those fiscal years. The Fund believes the adoption of SFAS 157
will have no material impact on its financial statements.

The Money Market Portfolios

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Money Market Portfolios (Trust) is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, (1940 Act) as a diversified, open-end investment
company, consisting of one portfolio, The Money Market Portfolio (Portfolio).
The shares of the Portfolio are issued in private placements and are exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933.

The following summarizes the Portfolios' significant accounting policies.

A. SECURITY VALUATION

Securities are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value. This
method involves valuing an instrument at its cost and thereafter assuming a
constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium. All security
valuation procedures are approved by the Trust's Board of Trustees.

B. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements, which are accounted for as a
loan by the Portfolio to the seller, collateralized by securities which are
delivered to the Portfolio's 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 Portfolio, with the value of the underlying
securities marked to market daily to maintain coverage of at least 100%. All
repurchase agreements held by the Portfolio at period end had been entered into
on December 31, 2007. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost.

C. INCOME TAXES

No provision has been made for U.S. income taxes because it is the Portfolio's
policy to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue
Code and to distribute to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income
and net realized gains.

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. Amortization of
premium and accretion of discount on debt securities are included in interest
income. Dividends from net investment income are normally declared daily and
distributed monthly. Distributions to shareholders are determined according to
income tax regulations (tax basis). Distributable earnings determined on a tax
basis may differ from earnings recorded in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences may be
permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital
accounts to reflect their tax character. These reclassifications have no impact
on net assets or the results of operations. Temporary differences are not
reclassified, as they may reverse in subsequent periods.


                                                          Semiannual Report | 27

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

E. ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

F. GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust's organizational documents, its officers and trustees are
indemnified by the Trust against certain liabilities arising out of the
performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of
business, the Trust enters into contracts with service providers that contain
general indemnification clauses. The Trust's maximum exposure under these
arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made
against the Trust that have not yet occurred. Currently, the Trust expects the
risk of loss to be remote.

2. SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

At December 31, 2007, there were an unlimited number of shares authorized

fiscal year. At June 30, 2007, the Portfolio deferred realized capital losses of
$19,469.

At December 31, 2007, the cost of investments for book and income tax purposes
was the same.

6. MERGER

On August 31, 2006, the Franklin Money Fund acquired all of the assets, subject

merger. The merger was accomplished by a taxable exchange and accounted for as a
purchase, and resulted in the Franklin Money Fund owning shares of the U.S.
Government Securities Money Market Portfolio. The

6.  MERGER (CONTINUED)

Franklin Money Fund then used the share of the U.S. Government Securities Money
Market Portfolio to purchase in-kind additional shares of the Portfolio. The
U.S. Government Securities Money Market Portfolio then liquidated and
transferred its portfolio securities to the Portfolio.

The selected financial information and shares outstanding immediately before and
after the acquisition were as follows:

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FUND NAME                                             SHARES AT $1.00 PER SHARE

The U.S. Government Money Market Portfolio.........            84,125,474
The Money Market Portfolio ........................         5,604,232,120
The Money Market Portfolio - post merger...........         5,688,357,594

7.  REGULATORY AND LITIGATION MATTERS

As part of various investigations by a number of federal, state, and foreign
regulators and governmental entities, including the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), relating to certain practices in the mutual fund industry,
including late trading, market timing and marketing support payments to
securities dealers who sell fund shares ("marketing support"), Franklin
Resources, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company"),
entered into settlements with certain of those regulators and governmental
entities. Specifically, the Company entered into settlements with the SEC, among
others, concerning market timing and marketing support.

On June 6, 2007, the SEC posted for public comment the proposed plan of
distribution for the market timing settlement. Once the SEC approves the final
plan of distribution, disbursements of settlement monies will be made promptly
to individuals who were shareholders of the designated funds during the relevant
period, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the settlement and plan.

In addition, the Company, as well as most of the mutual funds within Franklin
Templeton Investments and certain current or former officers, Company directors,
fund directors, and employees, have been named in private lawsuits (styled as
shareholder class actions, or as derivative actions on behalf of either the
named funds or Franklin Resources, Inc.). The lawsuits relate to the industry
practices referenced above.

The Company and fund management believe that the claims made in each of the
private lawsuits referenced above are without merit and intend to defend against
them vigorously. The Company cannot predict with certainty the eventual outcome
of these lawsuits, nor whether they will have a material negative impact on the
Company. If it is determined that the Company bears responsibility for any
unlawful or inappropriate conduct that caused losses to the Trust, it is
committed to making the Trust or its shareholders whole, as appropriate.

8.  NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Portfolio adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB
Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an
Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109" ("FIN 48"), on December 31, 2007. FIN
48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions taken or expected
to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 provides guidance on the measurement,
recognition, classification and disclosure of tax positions, along with
accounting for the related interest and penalties. The Trust reviewed the tax
positions for each of the three open tax years as of June 30, 2007 and have
determined that the adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the
Portfolio's financial statements.

In September 2006, FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, "Fair Value Measurement"
("SFAS 157"), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim
periods within those fiscal years. The Trust believes the adoption of SFAS 157
will have no material impact on its financial statements.
