Why Free?- As of December 14th 2006 Business Functions is now completely free.
- This is the complete Business Functions including Banking and Treasury, Real Estate, Oil and Gas and Monte-Carlo Simulation.
- The Basic, Standard and Pro Editions are no more.
- Why have we done this from a user point of view? Well, we want to get even more people using it, and remove deployment issues completely. People's biggest fear was that the models that they build are not useable by someone else, and we hope that we've largely got rid of that worry.

Why have we done this from our point of view?
Well, basically, the various consulting services we offer are more important that the software sales.
Removing any problems with distribution, deployment, licensing etc means that more people are using BF and providing feedback on the library - ie its getting a lot better.
A curiosity is that, once we started adapting the library to its new free status,
we noticed that the basic quality of the user interface got much better,
because we didn't have to focus all the various editions, activation etc.
I guess whats important to us is that you really see how this library can make a difference for you, not - believe it or not - simply the bottom line.
