Conventional investment wisdom states that you can only get greater returns by taking on greater risk. This is false. Reduced risk can lead to increased returns, simply because recoveries are able to start from much higher levels. In this session with Mike Dever, you'll learn how.

Risk Replacement is an innovation that enables investors to capture the upside potential of holding a high-performing asset—such as Nasdaq stocks—but replace that high-risk with the lower risk associated with a more conservative portfolio.
Some benefits are:
- The ability to stay fully invested in stocks and-without engaging in unpredictable market timing-avoid substantial bear markets.
- Increase portfolio returns above those achieved by buy-and-hold, while also reducing risk.
This keynote talk not only introduces the concept of Risk Replacement but then also shows a specific way it can be used by accredited investors.
