The current version of SuSE Linux contains, for instance, the finance software packages GNUcash and Moneydance. Since the GNUcash version 1.8.0, it complies with the openHBCI standard, so now you have the choice to use open source software for home banking with Linux in Germany.

Commercial Home Banking Software for Linux (HBCI):

The program "Moneyplex" by "Matrica" supports the HBCI standard ("Home Banking Computer Interface") on Linux.
SuSE Linux 8.2 contains a full version of it, but only in German only.
