Bradford & Bingley
Bradford & Bingley started out as a merger between two Yorkshire building societies, before converting to a PLC in 2000. Over the last few years, B&B has become a leading player in buy-to-let mortgages.
As of 29 September 2008 all of Bradford & Bingley's retail branches and its savings accounts were transferred to the Santander Group (who own Abbey). The rest of the business, including Mortgage Operations and Insurance were taken into public ownership by the government.
As a result of the transfer, B&B ceased all new lending activities and the business became a mortgage servicing company.
