The Coventry Building Society is a building society based in Coventry, England. It is the third largest in the United Kingdom with total assets of more than £31.2 billion at 31 December 2014.〔(Coventry Building Society - financial results )〕 It is a member of the Building Societies Association. ==History== The Society was founded in 1884, in Coventry as the Coventry Permanent Economic Building Society. As with other societies, the intention was to provide greater access to finance to the local community, within a mutually-owned organisation. As its reputation grew locally, it became the largest building society in the county by asset share, within 30 years. A long period of growth culminated in 1983, with the merger of the ''Economic'' with the other main building society in the city, the ''Coventry Provident''. Today, the society has over 1.7 million members, assets of over £31 billion, and continues to resist any moves towards demutualisation. Its logo is of Lady Godiva, the iconic figure of Coventry. On 23 March 2010, the Coventry announced that it would be merging with the Stroud and Swindon Building Society to create a society, under the Coventry brand, that has 1.7 million members, 70 branches and 22 agencies in the West Midlands, South West England and Wales.〔(Coventry building society merges with Stroud & Swindon )〕
