Market Harborough Building Society (MHBS) has reported record-breaking results for the past year.

In 2023, the mutual’s total assets grew to £722m and it achieved record levels of new mortgage lending of £198m; its mortgage book grew by 20% for a second consecutive year.

Meanwhile, the society’s savings accounts saw record inflows of £129m, significantly exceeding the 2022 record of £92m.

Iain Kirkpatrick (pictured), MHBS’s chief executive, said: “Market Harborough Building Society provided a beacon of light in the challenging market of 2023. We stayed true to our promises, made decisions based on what was right for members, brokers and their clients and are proud to have delivered another record-breaking set of results.

“I’m grateful to our members, partners and to our dedicated colleagues for their continued support and trust in our Society. I’m looking forward to what the future holds, including the move to our new head office at The Point in Market Harborough later this month, which will see our colleagues working together under one roof for the first time.

“I can’t wait to see the impact that even better communication and collaboration will have as we bring even more innovation to the market.”
