Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyse how the use of Big Data can affect a common practice in the insurance industry: price discrimination. In this sense, the approach will be made from a double perspective, Competition law and insurance regulatory law, with special emphasis on the exclusionary effects the use of this technology might cause.
