About
The Century Building Society Company
The
Society was established and registered in 1899 under the name "The
New Edinburgh Investment Building Society", and in 1946 the
Society's name was changed to that of "The Century Building
Society". They celebrated their centenary on 17th April 1999.
The Century Building Society Head office is located in central Edinburgh
and here is transacted all the Society's business. They do not have
a branch network, although they do have a significant number of
uncontracted agents throughout the country.
The Century Building Society are a mutual organisation owned by
members of the Society for the benefit of current and future members.
They advocate mutuality as being in the best interest for their
Society and its members because, unlike banks, they are not under
pressure to make substantial profits to satisfy equity shareholders.
Any surplus, over and above that required to meet current and forecasted
capital requirements, they will endeavour to return to their members
by way of competitive rates and/or loyalty bonuses.
Century Building Society strive to
achieve and maintain a friendly and personal service and given the
fact that all enquiries are dealt with in a "head office"
situation, such enquiries are dealt with promptly and efficiently
with ease of access to senior management on specific matters.
