NatWest signs up with Yahoo!

NATWEST, THE high street bank is teaming up with Yahoo!, the Internet portal, to offer banking services to its UK customers over the Internet. The deal is the latest move by a UK bank to stake it claim in the battle for supremacy in Internet banking.

Barclays, NatWest's arch-rival on the high street launched its own free Internet access earlier this year and recently claimed to be Britain's biggest Internet bank. NatWest's arrangement with Yahoo! will enable customers to view their bank statement on their personalised Yahoo page and fast link to the bank's website for transactions.
