Principality is a Welsh building society based in Cardiff, Wales. With assets of just over £4bn it is Wales' largest building society and the 10th largest in the United Kingdom.

It was founded in 1860 in Cardiff by William Sanders.[1]

It presently has 51 branches across Wales and some over the English border, and employs around 1000 people. In 2005 it expanded into personal loans with the creation of a new company called Nemo Personal Loans.
