CFA Institute invites you to view this informative webinar to learn about failings of the standard risk-return theory. When should you use high-risk investments, or should you avoid them altogether? How should investors frame risk to their clients?
In this webinar we will:
- explain what the risk-return theory is and why we think it works;
- show that in practice it does not work; and
- present some theories offered as to why the risk-return theory does not work.
Note that this generates a simple positive recommendation: avoid high-risk investments in general.
This is an archived recording of a live webinar that took place on 15 January 2019.
