Hi from Berlin,
Welcome back to the monthly overview after the summer break. Since August was quiet, I skipped the monthly mailing but am now back.
Also, a quick heads-up: my weekly newsletter now runs on themed editions (i.e., each week I focus on payments, banking, or lending). If you subscribed to this monthly newsletter to get only a few emails from me AND you are only interested in one financial product, you might want to change your subscription preferences (Change here).
And now let's dive in 👇
