                 FUNDTECH REVENUE INCREASES 161% TO $7.9 MILLION
        *NET INCOME INCREASES TO $1.8 MILLION OR $0.16 PER DILUTED SHARE

Jersey City, New Jersey, April 23, 1999--Fundtech, Ltd. (Nasdaq: FNDTF), today
announced its financial results for the first quarter of 1999. The Company
reported revenue of $7.9 million, more than double the $3.0 million reported on
the first quarter of 1998. Net income for the quarter increased to $1.8 million
or $0.16 per diluted share, as compared to $231,000 or $0.03 per diluted share,
for the year-ago quarter.

Software license fees increased 128% to $4.6 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, from $2.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 1998. The
increase in license fees was due to the continued market penetration of the
Company's United States payments products and further advances into the
international marketplace. Revenue attributable to solutions sales for banks
based outside of the United States accounted for approximately 24% of total
revenue compared to less than 10% during the first quarter of 1998. Maintenance
and service revenue was $2.8 million, a 310% increase over $685,000 in the
year-ago quarter. Hardware sales were $471,000 for the quarter as compared to
$325,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 1998.

Fundtech is a leading provider of software which enables businesses and their
banks to process payments, transfer funds and manage cash positions
electronically. The Company's client/server software products automate the
process of transferring funds among corporations, banks and clearance systems
and enable businesses to manage global cash positions efficiently and in
real-time.

development of the Company's services, markets, product functionality and year
2000 compliance and future demand for the Company's products services and other
statements regarding matters that are not historical facts, are forward-looking
statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995).

actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied thereby.

integration of those acquisitions into the company's present business, risks
associated with the Company's strategic partnerships, various project associated
risks, including internet projects, substantial competition, risks associated
with intellectual property rights, risks associated with international
operations and other risk factors listed from time to time in the Company's
filings and reports.

an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or
