Settlement targets burial policy discrimination in South Carolina
Insurance spokesman Bill Free said it is unclear what portion of the settlement will go to policyholders in South Carolina. The Greenville based company will pay eligible claimants a third more than their policy value or the dollar claim, addressing a practice that charged blacks and other minorities higher premiums. The insurer based prices on mortality tables showing minorities die younger, a method common until the 1980s when banned. Free said the intent was to offset or equalize benefits.
