In the midst of all the noise about the markets and the virus, one term is getting thrown around a lot: black swan events. So, what's that? Is it COVID-19? Ebola? A terrorist attack? 

On this week's Conquer Risk podcast, we set aside the hype to provide some clarity:

  • What IS a black swan event?

  • What effects can be correlated to these pandemic scares?

  • What should the affects be on advisors and clients based on context and investment styles?

We hope you enjoy and follow us on this journey!
