Leeds Building Society is a member of the Building Societies' Association. The Society is a participant in the Financial Services Compensation Scheme established under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000. Payments under the Scheme are limited to a maximum of £50,000 of an investor's total shares and/or deposits in a society. Most investors are covered, including individuals and small firms. A small number of categories of shares and deposits are not covered, for example deferred shares - permanent interest bearing shares. Although most shares and deposits are denominated in sterling, all other currencies are covered. Further details are available on request from the Society.

The Society is covered by the Financial Ombudsman Service. Leeds Building Society offers some investment products that may be operated through branches and by post and certain products which can be operated by post only.

The Society is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority and our FSA registration number is 164992.
