Markus Braun is back. Now in the courtroom in the dock and no longer on the stage where such a manager normally stands: annual general meeting, balance sheet press conference, analysts’ meeting. But the former Wirecard boss still tries the old tricks. Speak in buzzwords, don’t let yourself be pinned down, if in doubt, postpone the answer until later, and always set your own message – no matter what the question is. The basics of manager rhetoric. Brown dominates, no question, even after two and a half years in custody. When all the attention is on him, he’s the old man.
