Depends on the user group - older more conservative then yes add a
home link.  e-commerce = yes. financial yes as well.

My experience in user testing shows people find it reassuring.
(interestingly testing amazon who use welcome instead of home people
don't tend to think welcome  = home)

Younger demographic then probably not as they will be familiar with
the logo = home connection.
