Lecturer: Good morning, everyone! To tell you the truth, I didn’t 
expect to see so many people here! I’m here to present my 
course ‘Cross- Border Transactions’. The course is intended 
for those who completed the course on International 
Trade run by my colleague last semester. But my course IS 
different. My USP or unique selling proposition, if I may use 
the language of marketing, is that my course is delivered in 
English. We will focus on a different aspect – logistics – of 
international trade. What happens to the goods or shipment, 
when it arrives in the country? What kind of organisations 
and people facilitate the delivery of the imported or exported 
goods? What transportation modes can be used and what 
affects their choice?
To learn the inside secrets of the world of cross-border 
transactions we will extensively exploit modern audio and 
video facilities. The course will last nine weeks with two 
contact hours per week. You need to attend if you want to
