Building societies generally indulge in the same business as banks in the U.K. but are restricted by law to set aside 75% of their lending for residential projects. Banks are more commercial in nature whereas building societies are not. Their shares are not publicly traded, and voting rights are limited to members. Members are those holding an account or those who have obtained a mortgage from the building society.
