Abstract

This review's focal point thoroughly examines crucial conceptual development and financial inclusion elements using bibliometric Analysis through R and VosViewer. The Scopus database, used to guide the investigation, turned up 2000 documents over 25 years, from 1998 to 2022. To highlight the intellectual organisation of the discipline, pinpoint gaps, and identify essential work, citation networks, co-citation analysis, and publishing trends have all been used. Using bibliometric analysis, the most well-known journals, authors, nations, articles, and themes have been determined. According to the findings, ndia is the most productive nation, Sustainability is the most productive journal, Munene J.C. is the most productive author, the Department of Finance, Risk Management and Banking is the most productive division, Makerere University is the most productive university, Sarma M. is the author who has received the most citations, and the word 'finance' is used the most. Potential study fields have been identified after a conceptual agenda that presents the entire picture has been displayed.
