  • Unisex premiums Insurance EU press release March 2011

    http://curia.europa.eu/jcms/upload/d...cp110012en.pdf

    Accordingly, the Court states, there is a risk that EU law may permit the derogation from the equal treatment of men and women, provided for by the Directive, to persist indefinitely. A provision which thus enables the Member States in question to maintain without temporal limitation an exemption from the rule of unisex premiums and benefits works against the achievement of the objective of equal treatment between men and women and must be considered to be invalid upon the expiry of an appropriate transitional period.
    Consequently, the Court rules that, in the insurance services sector, the derogation from the general rule of unisex premiums and benefits is invalid with effect from 21 December 2012.

      Gender equality should never have been made(from a male's perspective). However, if they can offer lower prices to woman then hopefully they will offer lower prices to everyone(likely chance). So looks like I need to buy some shares in the insurance providers cos their profits will be even higher now
