<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The aim of this article is to understand how maximum life expectancy is achieved in the context of mortality transition. It explores this aim using the concepts of potential life expectancy, based on minimum rates at each age among all high longevity populations, and concordant ages. Concordant ages are defined as ages at which the minimum death rate occurs in the population with the maximum life expectancy. The results show the extent to which maximum life expectancy could increase through the realization of demonstrably achievable minimum rates. </abstract>
