Abstract

The purpose of this study is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of research on financialization from 2014 to 2023. A range of articles on financialization was collected using the Scopus database. The articles analyzed cover ten years, spanning from 2014 to 2023. The survey utilized a Scopus analyzer to obtain the analysis results such as the number of documents published by year, source, and country. To analyze the co-authorship, co-occurrences, citation analysis, and bibliographic coupling, VOSviewer Version 1.6.18 was utilized. After applying limits to open access, year, subject area, document type, publication stage, keyword, source type, and language, a database search resulted in 166 articles on financialization published between 2014 and 2023. Statistical and network analyses reveal that most articles were published in 2019 and 2021, with the United Kingdom contributing the highest number of documents. The network analysis of various parameters indicates a decline in research on financialization during the period under study, suggesting the need for further work in this area in the upcoming years. The study also includes statistical analysis of authors, documents, countries, and affiliations.
