Administrative/Biographical history:
The Building Society Indemnities Committee was established in 1925 by insurance companies interested in mortgage guarantee business. Originally meetings were held at the head office of the Royal Exchange Assurance Company at Royal Exchange, London. From 1928 until 1937 meetings were held in a variety of places, including the offices of various insurance companies, the Accident Offices Association and the Fire Offices Committee. In April 1937, the Accident Offices Association agreed to meetings being held at its offices and to provide executive and secretarial services to the Committee. The Building Society Indemnities Committee was wound up on 31 May 1981 and its business transferred to the British Insurance Association.
