Discriminación

Identificamos comportamientos discriminatorios directos e indirectos en los sectores público y privado que conducen a conductas económicas indebidas. Investigamos los sesgos discriminatorios derivados del uso de algoritmos, inteligencia artificial y políticas de precios que causan un impacto desigual en las minorías protegidas.

Nuestra investigación original abarca los principales sectores económicos y se basa en sólidas metodologías estadísticas. Nos centramos en las prácticas que tienen un impacto desproporcionado en grupos de población con alguna de varias condiciones de protección, como sexo, edad, etnia, discapacidad y religión.

Nuestro departamento de discriminación se centra en los múltiples aspectos del ciclo de las acciones judiciales: desde la identificación de conductas discriminatorias hasta la estimación de daños y perjuicios y la elaboración de informes periciales que evalúen el impacto discriminatorio.

Resultados

La experiencia de Fideres en economía y análisis de datos nos permite proporcionar a despachos de abogados y demandantes pruebas estadísticas de discriminación, impacto dispar y cuantificación de daños y perjuicios. Hemos participado en procedimientos de arbitraje y litigios en Estados Unidos, Reino Unido y Sudáfrica relacionados con comportamientos discriminatorios en diversos sectores, desde las finanzas hasta las grandes empresas tecnológicas. En los casos de discriminación, al igual que en otros tipos de litigios, el punto fuerte de Fideres es su capacidad para utilizar los datos disponibles públicamente para identificar esta forma de conducta indebida y aportar pruebas desde la fase preparatoria hasta el proceso judicial.
