It is 30 years since the Ecology mutual started and in its 30th anniversary year it reached assets exceeding £100 million. The green lenders success shows a need in the market for banks and building societies that consider the social and environmental aspects of a loan rather than just short term profit.
Ecology also extended its lending criteria to include borrowers wishing to invest in sustainable projects as well as buying or building green homes. Around 85 per cent of Ecology Building Society mortgages agreed last year were for sustainable residential projects such as new build, building conversions and renovations.
Last year loans were agreed for many green properties and projects, 85 per cent of which were residential with the other 15 per cent for projects by charities as well as projects by housing co-operatives.
The increase in self-build projects and affordable social housing schemes has also generated more lending business in this area. An Ecology Building Society mortgage is an alternative to the norm supporting people who wish to live sustainably and invest with these principles in mind.
