Britannia Building Company Description
You needn't be a carpenter to join this building society. The Britannia Building Society provides financial services such as mortgage and personal loans, savings accounts, insurance, and credit cards to its more than 2 million members throughout the UK. What began nearly 150 years ago as Leek and Moorlands is today the second largest building society in the country -- and they plan on getting bigger. The company purchased Bank of Ireland's Bristol & West branch unit for $270 million in mid 2005, in an attempt to strategically strengthen the scope of its business.
