building society

Ironically enough it's the opposite. Banks answer to shareholders, building societies answer to its members. Building societies compete with banks, if they're unheard of in the US that certainly does explain the state of the US banking system.

We don't have building societies in the US, but we do have similar institutions called credit unions.
