SUMMARY
A member of the Federal Trade Commission says she distrusts the agency's own study on the use of credit-based insurance scoring in insurance underwriting because its methodology is flawed and the study was far less thorough than other industry probes.
Commissioner Pamela Jones Harbour, the only one of the five FTC commissioners to vote against releasing the report, said in a statement the research was poorly conducted and that its conclusions can't be trusted.
"Because I distrust the integrity of the underlying data set upon which the study was based, I also doubt the reliability of any conclusions the report might draw," Harbour added.
