Here is a PDF of the In-Class Course Materials for "Presenting in English" in International Finance for SS2020.  You will need these to participate in the lessons  this semester.  Hard copies can also be obtained Tuesdays, 12-13 outside 2/375 for €5 a piece.  Look for the materials in copy boxes in the hallway outside my office, and deposit the money for each script in the attached envelope.  Until further notice I have no physical office hours for the distribution of this material, and it takes place this semester fully on an honorary and independent basis.
