Abstract

This paper presents a detailed bibliometric analysis of the interaction between financial development and climate change, with the main aim of elucidating the current state of research in this area, identifying existing gaps, and guiding future researchers interested in this rapidly expanding field. The study used VOSviewer software version 1.6.18 to analyze the bibliometric data, facilitating the mapping of co-author networks, institutional collaborations, and the identification of main research directions. Through this tool, 730 papers from the Web of Science database covering the period 2010–2024 were extracted and analyzed. The study highlights the authors and institutions that have made significant contributions to the investigation of the relationship between financial development and climate change. The identification of key contributors and international collaborative networks provides a solid foundation for future research and policy initiatives. In addition, the study identifies the most prolific journals and assesses the quality and impact of the research. This allows for a deeper understanding of current research directions and potential future developments. The study not only clarifies the current state of research but also opens up new opportunities for investigating innovative and sustainable solutions aimed at improving the quality of life and protecting the environment.
