Bibliometric Analysis of Green Finance Research Using Science Mapping Technique
Öz
The increasing importance of green finance in the global financial system has led to a surge in related research. However, a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the green finance literature remains limited. This study aims to analyze the structure of green finance research using VOSviewer. The motivations behind this study include identifying the main themes and trends in green finance research, profiling the leading authors, institutions, and countries contributing to the field, and understanding the relationships between different research clusters within green finance.
A total of 617 publications from 2009 to 2024 were analyzed. The bibliometric analysis results reveal prominent themes and trends in the green finance literature. Additionally, examining the most cited authors, influential institutions, and geographical distribution helps identify key stakeholders in this field. The findings indicate that publications in "Green Finance" are limited, reflecting its status as an emerging area of research. However, as environmental issues escalate, academic interest in this field is expected to grow. This study provides a solid foundation for future green finance research.
