Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FinancialView at 5.0 against Provision's 2.9. FinancialView also leads on monetization model (free vs subscription) and device support (3 vs 1). Provision's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (454 vs 3). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
