Site-Seeing

ADVANCE BANK of Sydney opened its doors in 1985. With recent electronic moves it is living up to its name, promoting itself as "Australia's leading Internet bank."

Its Web site offers a complete package of transaction and related investment and business services. In October it licensed Digicash Inc.'s Ecash system for deployment late this year.

"Our customers can already use Internet banking to access statements, transfer money between accounts, and pay bills," said spokesman David Brown. The addition of electronic cash puts "a virtual ATM on the Internet." (www.advance.com.au)
