Britannia International is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Britannia Building Society, the UK's second largest mutual society which has assets in excess of £35bn.

Deposits made with Britannia International are fully guaranteed by Britannia Building Society which has given a legally-binding undertaking to discharge all liabilities of Britannia International in the unlikely event that Britannia International is unable to do so itself whilst still a subsidiary of Britannia Building Society. This means that all your funds plus any accrued interest is protected first and foremost by our parent company.

More information on the strength of Britannia Building Society can be found here.

There is also a second layer of security available to customers who invest in the Isle of Man.

Eligible deposits made with an Isle of Man office of Britannia International are covered by the Depositors' Compensation Scheme contained in the Banking Business (Compensation of Depositors) Regulations 1991.

This scheme has recently been updated and the amount of compensation now payable has increased to an overall maximum of £50,000 in respect of each eligible depositor.
