End of September, our colleague Paul Friedrich Hark traveled to Tilburg to present the working paper “The 52-Week High and Corporate Announcement Returns”, which is joined work with Dr. Nils Lohmeier, Dr.Pascal Büsing, and Prof. Dr. Hannes Mohrschladt, at the Brown Bag Seminar of the Finance Department at the Tilburg School of Economics and Management. The seminar offered valuable comments and feedback for the project to our researchers. Thank you very much to Thomas Gruenthaler for the invitation and to Marc Stam for the organization of the seminar.

The Women in Finance project was honored by AlumniUm e.V.'s ProCampus Initiative. The initiative supports projects that sustainably improve study conditions at the School of Business and Economics. In this regard, our FCM colleagues were presented with a symbolic check for €2,700 last week.

At this year’s American Accounting Association Conference in Chicago, our colleague Nils Lohmeier represented the Finance Center Münster and presented a joint research project with Thomas Langer and Hannes Mohrschladt.
In addition to engaging discussions of the project and inspiring conference presentations, there was also the opportunity to explore the “Windy City” in perfect weather.
