well, i had a nice cheque just before Christmas, but i have spread my net fairly laterally within 'mutuals'..
a friend of mine keeps gaining with regular payments from the Sons of Temperance.. what they refer to as his 'pension'. joining SoT was a very useful decision for some.
in terms of a demutualisation of a financial institution, i think we're going back several years now.. i benefitted from Standard Life. have there been any more recently?

another friendly society merger is on the cards..
https://www.kingstonunity.co.uk/sgm/
as it happens this would actually be a remerger. the society split back in the 1800s.
i joined four friendly societies with small monthly tax exempt investment plans back in 2012. this would be the second of the four being 'merged' into The Oddfellows.

there will be no windfall payments for KUFS members if the merger goes ahead as planned AAAT.
