Banks, Insurance Companies, and Discrimination1
Business and Society Review 113 (3):403-419 (2008)
Abstract
ABSTRACTThis article examines some of the reasons why banks and insurance companies have been accused of discrimination, and shows that this is by and large a false accusation. Economic analysis demonstrates that racial discrimination is not a profit‐maximizing strategy. Actually, unwise public policies are actually precluding many consumers from the marketMy notes
