Abstract. Providing financial e-services in the all areas involves taking decisions processes. Existing systems, also multi-agent systems, usually include only one of the earlier mentioned areas, and they are closed systems, available only to a small group of users. In addition, agents' knowledge in these systems is characterized by a certain degree of heterogeneity. Since in the decisive process one final decision is required, knowledge shall be automatically integrated. The aim of this paper is presentation of the author's method for knowledge integration in multi-agent decision support system of financial e-services. The first part of paper presents an architecture of the developed system, functioning of selected agents and a structure of agents' knowledge representation. Next, the developed method for integration of knowledge. The last part of paper presents the results of research experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of the system and the developed method.
