Abstract

This study presents a bibliometric analysis, the aim of which is to synthesize bibliometric analysis in the fintech field in order to provide a detailed understanding of trends, developments and influence of research and publications in this continuously growing field. Keyword analysis of fintech articles and publications can reveal the main research themes and subfields. By analysing the number of citations and the impact of papers, bibliometric research can help to assess the impact and recognition of researchers and institutions in the fintech community. The sample includes 424 articles, and these results are associated with the term "fintech", with no additional restrictions. The evolution of the number of publications and citations over time is detailed in the analysis below. The term "fintech" started to be significantly more used in Web of Science articles from 2020 onwards. The overall trend is upwards, with 2022 recording the highest number of publications and citations. Therefore, the number of papers is significant and such an analysis gives us the possibility to rank and identify the most cited authors as well as the most prestigious research centres in the field.
