Abstract

Natural disasters continue to increase in frequency and severity, bringing about ever-increasing interest in studying their financial consequences in order to contribute evidence to support the efforts of policy makers in coping with future catastrophes. Through a bibliometric and time series study, we examine the current status and trend of research related to the financial effects of natural disasters. We find evidence that pandemics have become a part of this line of research mainly due to the dissemination of COVID-19. Since the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by the United Nations came into force in 2015, there has been a marked growth of related articles, suggesting that this type of event may favor scientific output related to natural catastrophes, with special emphasis on those derived from climate change and its impact on financial markets.
