Google Advisor Searches Financial Products

Google recently rolled out a beefed-up version of its financial search tools. Google Advisor helps you choose financial products and do a little bit of math.

Google has been testing a mortgage comparison tool for a while.  Now, you can also compare other products like savings accounts.  Google makes money when you use the service to find a lender, but the company does not currently get paid for other referrals.

Google does a decent job of listing savings accounts with competitive rates.  However, the choices are more limited than you'll find at a more established site such as DepositAccounts.com.  Over time, Google Advisor may have more data to offer, so it's worth checking in from time to time.
