Abstract

This study investigates the factors affecting demand for voluntary life and non-life insurance in the Western Balkan region, focusing on age and gender preferences. Using the Mind Genomics technology in an online experiment, 2,448 participants from Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia, and Kosovo provided insights. The research identified four meaningful categories of interest. The most preferred insurance products across all demographics were those for livestock, crops, agricultural tools, machinery, and motor vehicle liability. Additionally, pension plans were noted as promising for retirement income planning. The study suggests that financial institutions should tailor their awareness strategies to these preferences.
