Determinants of Sustainable Profitability of the Insurance Industry
Risk is a natural satellite of everyday reality, whether business or private life. Although insurance professionals are highly competent in understanding the entire world of risks, both individuals and households (in some cases even governments) that use insurance services are important stakeholders in this game. Firm size, level of specialization, GDP, population, and political stability are positively related to profitability, whereas risk-exposures, HHI (in ME specification), and inflation tend to detract from financial performance.

Determinants of the Performance of Countries’ Innovation Ecosystems
The pandemic marked the beginning of a succession of events on a global scale (not the least of which is a greater concern for the environment and for quality of life/distance work) with a major impact on the economy. Innovation plays a key role in meeting the challenges of the future, but despite investment in innovation, global economic growth has fallen short of the expected performance. it is important to note that innovations depend to a large extent on a suitable market environment (i.e., one conducive to innovation) and that improving a country’s capacity for innovation improves companies’ capacity for innovation. It is, therefore, essential to understand which factors most influence innovation performance, with the aim of directing policies and investment towards the areas with the greatest impact on results.

Developing a Wine Experience Scale
       This study develops a scale to measure wine tourism experiences and was tested in Portugal, in Porto and Madeira wine cellars. The resulting 18-item wine experience scale comprises four major dimensions: (1) Wine storytelling, (2) wine tasting excitement, (3) wine involvement, and (4) winescape. This is the first scale that comprises the dimensions of experience with wine senses, applied in a relevant wine destination where research is still limited. The results are relevant in boosting the increasingly recognized awareness of Portugal as wine tourism, as well as bringing experience scales to the body of knowledge.

Developing Forest Carbon Sinks for China
There is growing recognition of the role of forest carbon sinks in offsetting carbon emissions to reduce the threat of global warming. One example of this recognition is the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)-initiated Bonn Challenge which has committed to the restoration of 350 million hectares of forest by 2030, estimated to have the potential to sequester up to 14% of global carbon emissions.
