cooperative savings group

The term building society first arose in the 19th century, in the United Kingdom, from working men's co-operative savings groups: by pooling savings, members could buy or build their own homes.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_society

Я думаю, что building society в современном его значении не является эквивалентом жск, но термин cooperative savings group, предложенный в указанной выше статье википедии, вполне может подойти.


«Жилищно-строительный кооператив - это некоммерческая организация, в которой граждане и юридические лица объединяют свои средства для строительства или реконструкции дома», - поясняет старший юрисконсульт Фонда «Институт экономики города» Дмитрий ГОРДЕЕВ.

housing associations

Definitions of housing association on the Web:

* A non-profit making organisation committed to meeting specific housing needs.
www.clacksweb.org.uk/property/developmentplan/glossary/

* Housing associations in the United Kingdom are independent not-for-profit bodies that provide low cost housing for people in housing need. Any trading surplus is used to maintain existing homes and to help finance new ones. They are now the United Kingdom's major providers of new homes for rent, while many also run shared ownership schemes to help people who cannot afford to buy their own homes outright.

Peer comment(s):

neutral Olga Cartlidge : A Housing Association in Britain is a charity providing accommodation to people on a low income. In contrast, the Russian term would imply that the people involved are reasonably well off. Until recently used to be the case (until the late 90 ies).
