Should I apply to Germany as well?

Hey guys. Got a new dilemma here!

I am an international student from a non eu country and received an offer from Edinburgh for undergraduate economics.Now what I wanted to know is that when I am applying for internships and possibly even jobs at investment banks can I apply to investment banks in Germany?As a student from one country studying in another can I apply in a third country Germany or do they have some rules on hiring foreigners?
One thing that I can mention in my favor is that I am quite fluent in German.

Any feedback is really appreciated.Thanks in advance.

You are a student in the EU, let's assume for a moment this won't change (regardless of BREXIT). I think you should apply! I would look into the following groups, they might have a focus on more experienced professionals; ask anyway.

There are plenty of foreigners without any language skills in Germany and they all managed to get a visa and jobs. It should be easier for you with German language skills. Also contact the Zurich based banks, UBS, CS, etc
