Abstract
The research analyses the evolution and spread of integrated reporting, with a focus on the United Kingdom, one of the leading and most influential collaborative hubs in this field. By processing 1,665 scientific studies from the Scopus database, the bibliometric analysis performed using VOSviewer (v1.6.20) identified the most important publications, influential authors, and significant trends. The research provides a global overview of the evolution of integrated reporting, analysing geographical distribution, scientific fields, document types, keywords, citation patterns, frequently cited works, and funding sources that indicate institutional interest. The results highlight advantages such as increased transparency, more effective communication with stakeholders, and support for sustainable strategic decision-making. Although progress has been made, challenges remain, such as the lack of a common framework that everyone agrees on and the difficulty of measuring non-financial capital. The study also highlights new trends and developments, emphasizing the growing importance of integrated reporting in supporting long-term sustainability and corporate responsibility.
The results revealed that the highest research productivity is concentrated in Australia, and Meditari Accountancy Research as the most productive journal with highest influence and Maroun W emerged as the most prolific author with 22 publications.

The study aims to systematically map and synthesize the global research landscape on bank performance by employing a bibliometric approach. Using Biblioshiny as an analytical tool, the study conducts a structured extraction and comprehensive analysis of literature indexed in the scopus database. This process results in a final dataset consisting of 2,636 peer-reviewed articles published between 1990 and 2026. The analysis explores key dimensions, including publication trends, influential countries, leading institutions, prominent authors, and high-impact journals, as well as the intellectual and conceptual structures that underpin bank performance research. The findings reveal that the literature has historically been dominated by contributions from advanced economies with well-established financial systems, particularly the United States and several European countries. However, there has been a noticeable increase in contributions from developing and emerging economies in recent years, reflecting a more geographically diverse research landscape. From a conceptual perspective, bank performance research continues to be strongly anchored in core themes such as profitability, financial performance, efficiency, and corporate governance. Nevertheless, thematic evolution and trend analyses indicate a gradual shift toward more multidimensional perspectives. Recent studies increasingly integrate topics such as risk management, sustainability, digital transformation, financial technology (fintech), and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations. Furthermore, external shocks most notably the COVID-19 pandemic along with rapid digitalization, have significantly influenced both research directions and methodological approaches. Despite the expanding scope of the literature, the study identifies persistent conceptual fragmentation, particularly in efforts to simultaneously integrate governance, risk, technology, and sustainability within unified analytical frameworks. Overall, this study provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution, dominant themes, and emerging research opportunities in bank performance studies, offering valuable insights for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners aiming to foster more resilient, adaptive, and sustainable banking systems.

This study analyses the development, conceptual foundations, and emerging directions of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) research, with particular emphasis on its contribution to business sustainability and financial performance. It aims to map the dominant research themes in the ESG literature, examine the contributions of prominent authors, institutions, journals, and countries, and identify promising avenues for future research. The study adopts a quantitative bibliometric approach based on secondary data drawn from the Scopus database. A structured screening procedure was applied to peer reviewed journal articles, conference proceedings, and review papers published in English between 2015 and 2025 that explicitly addressed ESG concepts, yielding a final sample of 2,878 publications from 607 journals. Bibliometric indicators, including authorship patterns, citation structures, institutional and country contributions, journal sources, and keyword co occurrences, were examined using VOSviewer and R Studio (Biblioshiny). The findings indicate significant expansion and diversification of ESG research over the study period, organised around six core thematic clusters: sustainable development, business values, corporate social responsibility, ESG disclosure, ESG investment, and corporate strategy. The study identifies the most influential contributors and sources shaping ESG scholarship and points to growing research opportunities in the strategic and financial integration of ESG factors.

The purpose of this bibliometric analysis is to assess scholarly and research efforts in the field of SMA. Basically, the study observed the important indicators such as authors, journals, affiliations, key words, annual growth rate of scientific productions and citations, topic trends, and collaborative networks among scholars. "Scientific procedures and rationales for systematic literature review (SPAR-4-SLR)" is the methodology used in the study. 462 papers from 1995 to 2025 A.D. were retrieved from the Scopus database, and the analysis tool was Bibilioshiny. The analysis focuses on the expansion of scientific output, citations, keyword changes, the appearance of new authors, and the thematic area under SMA. The thematic area of SMA from its beginning to the present, as well as the most important authors, publications, affiliations, and collaborations, were highlighted, along with pioneering scholars in the discipline. New researchers continue their work to provide further insights in this field, guided by thematic analysis and the introduction of new keywords provided by this study in the field of SMA. This study can be used to evaluate SMA and its industrial practice and need assessment. Nevertheless, the study only used papers that were retrieved from Scopus, and its search keywords are limited.
