Abstract

British building societies have developed into major financial institutions with a major influence on both the housing and savings market. This article examines one facet of their influence: the pattern of mortgage lending within a city, the city of Glasgow. Variations in urban lending are examined and an assessment is made of how far lending patterns can be attributed to the structure of the building society industry and, among other influences, differences in society size and branch location.
