Some savings and loan associations are owned through stockholders, just as commercial banks and other corporations are owned through their stockholders.  Other S&Ls, termed as mutuals, are owned through their depositors.

The mutual S&L's profits (if any) are put in a special reserve account from which dividends are paid from time to time to the owner/depositors.
