Monthly spending on groceries and fuel exceeds budget

REDWOOD CITY, California and LONDON, March 1, 2011 - Yodlee, Inc., the leading provider of online personal financial
management (PFM) and revenue-generating payments solutions, and Money
Dashboard, the UK's simple online solution for consumers who struggle to keep
track of spending and income, today announced the results of an independent
analysis of spending habits of thousands of consumers over the last quarter
of 2010.

As the price of fuel continues to skyrocket worldwide and grocery prices
creep ever upwards, Yodlee and Money Dashboard found that consumers are
spending an average of 40% more on fuel and 9% more on groceries each month
than their budget allocation in these categories.

Money Dashboard Founder and CEO Gavin Littlejohn explained,
"Unfortunately the trend of day-to-day essentials increasing in price is set
to stay for the foreseeable future, and so consumers need to take this into
account when planning their monthly budget. Fortunately we can now provide a
secure and hassle free way to help consumers to budget and staying in control
more easily."

As people continue to struggle through difficult economic times, more
people are clamouring for easy-to-use online personal financial management
tools to help them plan and manage expenditures.

services, as is evidenced by Money Dashboard's rapid adoption," said Jason
O'Shaughnessy
, Yodlee's Managing Director, EMEA. "When people are dealing
with increased costs for life necessities like food and energy, the need for
accurate budgeting becomes even more pronounced, and we're pleased to provide
robust services that have a marked impact on the day-to-day lives of
thousands of people. Yodlee is committed to helping our partners to develop
the European market place for PFM."

Powering (PFM) for more than 27 million individuals across the globe,
