A university ex tariff is insurance rates, which the sex of the insurant not when tariff criterion uses, although it affects the risk evaluation. With a university ex tariff received with otherwise same conditions of men and women for the same contribution same achievements.

The sex plays in particular in the life and old age pension insurance as tariff criterion an important role, since the life expectancies of the sexes deviate partly strongly from each other (women have e.g. in Germany around approx. five years a longer life expectancy than men).

It gave political efforts for the introduction of university ex tariffs so far only then, if women had to pay higher contributions than men, not however in the reverse case.

Insurance with university ex tariffs

Since 1 January 2006 old age pension insurances in Germany, which are promotable as Riester pension, must, on university ex tariffs to be based. Before it existing contracts are already not affected by the law. Old age pension insurances, which are not promotable, use further the sex as tariff criterion.

Insurance with sex specific tariffs

Life insurances

With principal and temporary life insurances university ex tariffs are not used, therefore the contributions for women are lower with same achievement height than for men.

Private health insurances

Also for the private health insurances such tariffs are partly demanded, since the tariffs are importantly for women higher here. Reason for it is the higher risk of the insurer, which is due to pregnancies particularly by the longer life span by women and its more frequent physician attendance, in addition. Did not become generally accepted such regulations however yet.

The failed draft of the anti-discrimination law planned that the data and the computation would have to be openly put, if the sex were a determining factor during the risk evaluation in health insurance tariffs.
