| Abstract: | This paper discusses many private business relationships that are increasingly characterized by claims that certain actions should not be permitted since particular right claims are involved. One context, the use of age as a rating variable in the pricing of automobile insurance, is analyzed. By identifying, evaluating and assessing the relevant basis for the differentiation, actuarial equity, it is suggested that there is an ethical basis for such a practice. |
