SAN FRANCISCO, CA - November 11, 1999 -- For most people, handling personal finances has always been a chore --and usually an unwelcome and difficult one at that. A new web site from Jexp, Inc. is changing the face of personal financial management by putting it online. fnCentral http://www.fncentral.com offers all the benefits of traditional financial management software, but in a web-based format, which allows users to access and update their financial picture at any time and from any location. And, it's free.

"fnCentral is the first web-based personal finance manager," says fnCentral's Rajagopalan. "This site makes it really easy for users to take control over their personal finances." fnCentral provides a simple, customizable financial management system. Features include: budgeting tools, expense reports, full search capabilities, recurring bill reminders, portfolio management, personalized news and stock quotes, Palm VII support, and synchronization with Microsoft Money and Intuit Quicken. In addition, fnCentral connects members with independent consultants and allows users to securely share portions of their data with investment and tax consultants.

Users wanting the convenience of web-based financial management combined with the off-line entry abilities of desktop programs will appreciate fnCentral's Qwick Entry. Qwick Entry is a convenience tool that allows users to compile expense information off-line. The data can later be uploaded to the fnCentral server with a single mouse click. "Think of Qwick Entry as a temporary place for storing your expense entries," explains Rajagopalan, "a wallet which can later move all of its contents to a big safe at the touch of a button."

It also provides import/export support for Microsoft Money and Intuit Quicken, allowing users to quickly update their desktop financial managers and reconcile bank statements, while retaining the ability to manage their finances from anywhere in the world at any time.

While fnCentral's financial management, portfolio, and consultant referral services are free, the company plans to add two premium services in the near future. These services will allow users to pay bills online and file tax returns using the online finance manager. fnCentral's aim is to continue building and expanding the services available to its users; corresponding to this, suitable partnerships are currently being sought. "Our aim is to be the service provider of choice in the personal finance space," says Rajagopalan.
