society A building society
is a financial institution, owned by its members, that offers banking + other
financial services, especially mortgage lending. The term building society first
arose in the 19th century, in the United Kingdom, from co-operative savings groups.
In the UK today building societies actively compete with banks for most personal
banking services, especially mortgage lending + deposit accounts. At the start
of 2008, there were 59 building societies in the UK (listed below) with total
assets exceeding £360 billion Every building society in the UK is a member
of the Building Societies Association. The number of societies in the UK fell
by four during 2008 due to a series of mergers brought about, to a large extent,
by the consequences of the financial crisis of 2007-2009, + further mergers are
planned for the first few months of 2009. |  |

The original Building Society was
formed in Birmingham in 1774. Most of the original societies were fully terminating,
where they would be dissolved when all members had a house: the last of them was
wound up in 1980. In the 1830s + 1840s a new development took place with the Permanent
Building Society, where the society continued on a rolling basis, continually
taking in new members as earlier ones completed purchases, such as Leek United
Building Society. The main legislative framework for the Building Society was
the Building Society Act of 1874, with subsequent amending legislation in 1894,
1939 (see Coney Hall), + 1960.
In their heyday, there were hundreds of building
societies: just about every town in the country had a building society named after
that town. Over succeeding decades the number of societies has decreased, as various
societies merged to form larger ones, often renaming in the process, + other societies
opted for demutualisation followed by - in the great majority of cases - eventual
takeover by a listed bank. Most of the existing larger building societies are
the end result of the mergers of many smaller societies.
