A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF FINANCE AND BANKING STUDIES IN TÜRKİYE

Öz

This study aims to provide a bibliometric literature review of the literature on Türkiye in the field of finance and banking. Within the scope of the study, the literature related to Türkiye in the field of finance and banking published in the "Economics, Business Finance and Business" categories indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database was reviewed. The data obtained within the scope of the study, which covers the years 1980-2024/January, were classified, and analyzed using the VOSviewer program, one of the many software developed for scientific mapping analysis and presented with visual mapping methods. We analyzed 1,956 articles in 476 different journals indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database in the relevant period and on related topics. Within the scope of the study, it was determined which countries, institutions and academics were particularly influential. The results of the analysis revealed an increase in the number of publications of Turkish academics over the years. The number of publications in other countries has followed a more stable course over the years. The study also reveals the mainstream finance journals of finance and banking studies that include Türkiye in the scope of the study and shows that these journals have a particularly high level of increasing academic influence. The study makes an important contribution to the literature as it evaluates the data of a country like Türkiye, which is closely related to the world economies, and as far as we know, it is the first study to do so in the literature.

TÜRKİYE'DE FİNANS VE BANKACILIK ÇALIŞMALARININ BİBLİYOMETRİK BİR ANALİZİ

Öz

Bu çalışma, Türkiye'nin finans ve bankacılık alanındaki literatürüne ilişkin bibliyometrik bir literatür incelemesi sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında, Türkiye ile ilgili finans ve bankacılık alanındaki literatür, Web of Science (WoS) veri tabanında "İktisat, İşletme Finans ve İşletme" kategorilerinde yer alan yayınlar incelenmiştir. Çalışmanın kapsadığı 1980-2024/Ocak yıllarına ait veriler, sınıflandırılmış ve bilimsel haritalama analizi için geliştirilmiş birçok yazılımdan biri olan VOSviewer programı kullanılarak analiz edilerek görsel haritalama yöntemleriyle sunulmuştur. İlgili dönemde ve konularda Web of Science (WoS) veri tabanında indekslenen 476 farklı dergide yayımlanmış 1.956 makale analiz edilmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında hangi ülkelerin, kurumların ve akademisyenlerin özellikle etkili olduğu belirlenmiştir. Analiz sonuçları, yıllar içinde Türk akademisyenlerin yayın sayısında bir artış olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Diğer ülkelerdeki yayın sayıları ise yıllar boyunca daha istikrarlı bir seyir izlemiştir. Çalışma ayrıca Türkiye'yi konu alan finans ve bankacılık çalışmalarını içeren ana akım finans dergilerini ve bu dergilerin artan akademik etkisini göstermektedir. Bu çalışma, dünya ekonomileriyle yakından ilişkili bir ülke olan Türkiye'ye ait verileri değerlendirdiği için literatüre önemli bir katkı sunmakta ve bildiğimiz kadarıyla literatürde bunu yapan ilk çalışma olarak öne çıkmaktadır.
