Also, insurance just doesn't have much interesting space for innovation.

In life insurance, for example, products other than simple term insurance really shouldn't exist. They're mostly just Rube Goldberg tax sheltered savings accounts for the wealthy.

In theory there ought to be some opportunity in the area of incentivizing people to improve their health behaviors. But carriers have been much slower to move on that than to futz around with the latest financial engineering and tax avoidance techniques.
