text: The quickly evolving market for mobile banking represents a tremen- 
  dous opportunity for Euronet Worldwide. Last spring we introduced 
  Euronet® Mobile Banking as the first financial application that offered 
  both secure account access and a personalized accounting alerting 
  system. Among our new mobile banking clients in 2000 were the Bank 
  of Cyprus, for its branches in London and Greece, and the National 
  Bank of Kuwait, for its Lebanon branch, who were both first to market 
  in their regions. 
  
  Together with GSM operator Libancell, NBK-L’s 
  
  new mobile banking system offers customers 
  
  any time, any place access to their account 
  
  information from their GSM telephones. 
  
  To further strengthen our capabilities, we announced strategic alliances 
  to market and deliver Euronet’s suite of mobile banking solutions with 
  Aether Systems, Inc. for the US market and with Sila Communications for the European, Middle Eastern 
  and Asian markets. In addition, we formed similar regional strategic alliances with companies like Stet Hellas 
  Telecommunications S.A., a Greek mobile operator and subsidiary of Telecom Italia Mobile (TIM). 
  
  As next-generation mobile technology brings higher data speeds, personalization and other enhancements, 
  we believe the future of mobile banking presents great opportunities for Euronet.
