With assets of approximately £33 billion. == Background== In 1864 the Huddersfield Equitable Permanent Benefit Building Society was founded in Huddersfield, and expansion through a series of agreed mergers, predominantly with the ''Bradford Permanent Building Society'' in 1975, has seen it evolve into the national building society that it is today. The current name came into use in 1982, following the merger of the ''Huddersfield & Bradford Building Society'' and the ''West Yorkshire Building Society''. The Yorkshire also has a mortgage subsidiary company, Accord. In August 2011 it announced that it was closing its offshore subsidiary, Yorkshire Guernsey. Despite changes in the industry in recent years, the Yorkshire remains as one of the major mutual building societies in Britain - a review in 1995 confirmed that their mutual status was important to them, so that they remain answerable to their members, rather than outside shareholders. The Yorkshire currently provides financial services both directly and through a 224-strong branch network and 94 associated agencies across the UK. It is a member of the Building Societies Association. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yorkshire Building Society」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
