The
Buckinghamshire Building Society was founded in 1907 in Chalfont St
Giles by a group of local businessmen. Originally called the Chalfont & District
Permanent Building Society, it was renamed the Buckinghamshire in 1961.
In 1998 the original head office in Chalfont St Giles was totally destroyed
by fire, but was rebuilt later that year and an extension was added
in 2011. The Chalfont St Giles office is the only branch operated by
the Society. The Society now has approximately 11,000 savings customers
and over 1,000 borrowers and assets grew to almost £170m in 2010.
The Buckinghamshire Building Society is a Mutual Society, therefore owned by the Members. In common with all mutual societies, the Society has no shareholders to pay, so the emphasis is firmly on providing value to existing and new Members through competitive products in both the saving and borrowing sides of the business.
The Society recognises the importance of helping the local community, and frequently supports local events, schools, clubs and charities.
Continued growth is very important as it enables us to provide a wider range of products and services to all our Members
