A significant feature of the UK economy over the past decade hasbeen the growth in the financial services sector: Little has been written on the nature and content of accounting information systems in the financial services sector: To remedy, this deficiency a postal survey and interviews were undertaken to provide information on the nature and scope of management accounting information systems within UK building societies. This paper reports on the survey and interview findings relating to the role of branch and product profitability analysis for making strategic decisions, the evaluation of branch managerial performance, transfer pricing, budgeting and the monitoring of competitor performance.
