'inequitably-managed' originates from the word 'inequitable,' which comes from Latin, specifically the word 'aequitas,' where 'aequi-' meant 'equal' and '-tas' meant 'state or condition.'

'inequitable' changed from the Latin word 'aequitas' and eventually became the modern English word 'inequitable.'

Initially, it meant 'not equal or fair,' and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
