In the second step, these drivers were screened by distribution of expert questionnaires and fuzzy Delphi method. Eight drivers were in favorable condition in terms of defuzzified number and were selected for final prioritization. In the third step, priority drivers were evaluated by Marcos method. The priority drivers were: the cooperation patterns of insurtechs with the insurance industry, the extent of using data-driven analytics using big data in the insurance industry, the extent of penetration of fourth generation technologies such as the Internet of Things in businesses and people's lives, and technology regulatory policies in the country.

Some of these suggestions were: developing strategic and long-term cooperation between insurance companies and insurtechs, strengthening the infrastructure of data-driven and digital technologies in the insurance industry, and strengthening balanced, fair and comprehensive regulation in the financial industry.
