Nationwide building society has a prudent approach to lending. Our position remains more resilient than most. Over 70% of all our lending is funded by customer deposits. This means our exposure to international wholesale money markets is amongst the lowest levels within our peer group.

Financial Service Compensation Scheme (FSCS)

Nationwide Building Society is a member of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) in the United Kingdom, which was established under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 to pay compensation if a firm is unable, or likely to be unable, to pay claims against it. Payments under the FSCS are limited to a maximum of £85,000 per individual investor’s total deposits (or £170,000 if a joint account). Most investors are covered, including individuals and small firms. Although most shares and deposits in UK building societies are denominated in sterling, deposits in euro denomination are also covered. Euro accounts will be compensated in sterling based on a euro to sterling conversion rate determined when the compensation scheme is invoked and payment will be made within seven days of the date that the scheme is invoked. Individual customers are restricted to one maximum amount of £85,000 across an organisation.’ If you have any further concerns you may wish to visit the FSCS website at fscs.org.uk.
