Consumers
today want more from their local H&R Block office than just tax
preparation. They already think of H&R Block as a financial services
company, and they've asked America's most trusted tax partner to become
their complete personal financial partner.
To
meet the needs of its clients, H&R Block has transformed itself
from a company focused exclusively on tax preparation to a company that
provides comprehensive financial services. On Jan. 12, 2000, H&R
Block announced a complete menu of financial services, including brokerage
services, annuities, mutual funds, and IRAs, would be available through
the company's H&R Block Financial Centers and at its expanded Web
site.
In
July 2000, H&R Block put a new "face" on the company when
it introduced a new logo and brand identity program. The announcement
further reflects the company's transformation from the nation's most
trusted tax preparer to America's year-round financial partner. Just
one month earlier, Henry Bloch announced his retirement from the company
he founded. Henry stepped down as chairman and became honorary chairman
of H&R Block in September 2000.
Today
mainstream Americans can continue to look to H&R Block as an affordable
- and approachable - partner. The "new" H&R Block is poised
to help Americans meet their financial needs.

Block is the world's largest tax services company. It served nearly
