The exploration of behavioral economics principles applied to insurance purchasing decisions has decreased, perhaps overshadowed by more immediate concerns such as technological impacts and regulatory changes. - Global Insurance Markets:
Comparative studies of global insurance markets have become less common, as the focus narrows toward specific regional issues or localized case studies that address unique challenges. - Historical Analyses of Insurance Practices:
There seems to be a waning interest in historical analyses of insurance practices, as contemporary issues such as digital transformation and climate change take precedence.
