Explanation:

• For "established government policies that favored merchants and protected the nation’s economy", this matches mercantilism as mercantilism is an economic policy system focused on such goals.
• For "encouraged capitalists to save money", banks typically offer savings accounts and incentives for saving, so this matches banks.
• For "allowed investors to engage in speculative trading", insurance companies (through products like certain investment - linked insurance) or more broadly, the financial services they provide can facilitate such trading, so this matches insurance companies.

Answer:

• "established government policies that favored merchants and protected the nation’s economy" → mercantilism
• "encouraged capitalists to save money" → banks
• "allowed investors to engage in speculative trading" → insurance companies
