Personal Finance products for Mac ?

2020hindsight · 13th March 2008, 10:06

Does anyone have any suggestions about personal finance software for the Mac ?

The only reason I'm using Parallels is now because I use Microsoft Money - the UK edition.
Microsoft haven't updated their UK edition for a number of years, and since Intuit no longer publish in the UK I have little alternative.

My requirements as a minimum are :

- Bank/savings/tax-free savings account management
- share/fund portfolio management
- multi-currency for both of the above
- import historic data from Money

I've had a trawl around but I haven't found anything so far for the Mac that is as sophisticated as Microsoft's offering (and it's not often you hear that claim !)

Anyone any suggestions ?

Thanks.

Hi,
I personally use Ibank and it has all the features I need. At first i thought that the importing bank statements would be difficult (because thats what some of the reviewers were complaining about at the time I was considering the software) but besides some tweaking nothing too drastic. Here is the link in case you decide to take a look at it. :

cheers,

Thanks. Am downloading the demo now - the blurb on the website looks very promising.

ChaChing looked fine - but is essentially for bank accounts only

I don't think Quicken for Mac supports multicurrency. I thought that feature is only in the Windows version.

I use MYOB (Mind Your Own Business), but it really isn't "personal".
It is a nice package, and it supports multiple currency.
