Abstract: Let $w=w(x_1,\mathrm{...},x_n)$ be a word, i.e. an element of the free group $F=<x_1,\mathrm{...},x_n>$ on $n$ generators $x_1,\mathrm{...},x_n$. The verbal subgroup $w(G)$ of a group $G$ is the subgroup generated by the set $w(g_1,\mathrm{...},g_n{)}^{pm1}|g_{i}inG,1leqileqn$ of all $w$-values in $G$. We say that a (finite) group $G$ is $w$-maximal if $|G:w(G)|>|H:w(H)|$ for all proper subgroups $H$ of $G$ and that $G$ is hereditarily $w$-maximal if every subgroup of $G$ is $w$-maximal. In this text we study $w$-maximal and hereditarily $w$-maximal (finite) groups.
