MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- Just five weeks after the deal, Intuitsays the benefits to financial institutions from its acquisition ofDigital Insight are starting to come to life.

Intuit announced the upcoming release of Personal FinanceWorksand Small Business FinanceWorks.

"For the last 10 years, financial institutions have made greatprogress establishing a Web presence and enabling customers toconduct some of their financial business online, but it's time todeliver much more," said Jeff Stiefler, president of Intuit'sfinancial institutions division. Intuit believes that PersonalFinanceWorks will solve many of the most important financialmanagement needs identified through hundreds of in-home customerobservations it has made over the years.

These problems include:

o Managing all bills in one place: Current online bankingofferings generally only show users the bills paid through theirbill payment product--a service only half of all online bankinghouseholds use. Personal FinanceWorks will let users manage all oftheir monthly bills and obligations on their bank or credit union'sonline site, regardless of the method used to pay bills, Intuitsaid.

o Knowing their Real Balance: According to Intuit, the primaryreason people visit an online banking site is to see how much moneythey have available to spend. Most current online banking solutionsonly show customers their cleared balance, leaving them to wonderexactly how much money they have available. Personal FinanceWorksusers will see the cleared balance as well as their Real Balance,which includes checks written and upcoming scheduled bills anddeposits.

o Getting control over their spending: Very few online bankingsites today show users where they are spending their money.Personal FinanceWorks will enable users to view and customizespending reports. Small Business FinanceWorks was designed to helpsmall businesses manage their most important administrative jobs,said Intuit. Instead of using a combination of tools to manageimportant tasks--such as cash flow, payroll, invoicing and taxes--asingle secure log-in at a businesses' bank or credit union onlinebanking site will let small business owners understand and controlcash flow, create invoices, accept credit card payments and managecash flow.

Intuit acquired Digital Insight on Feb. 6. Together thecompanies serve more than 5,000 financial institutions, nearly 25million consumers and nearly 7 million small businesses.
