摘要

Digital financial inclusion has received significant scholarly attention, becoming a key subject in finance, economic, and sustainability research. Present study attempted to understand the evolution and trend in the publications of Digital Financial Inclusion along with identifying influential research constituents, its collaboration pattern and figure out the conceptual structure. The study used bibliometric analysis to determine publishing trends and patterns in digital financial inclusion. The study, which included 569 articles from the Web of Science database, sought to uncover knowledge development patterns, significant publications, authors, journals, prolific nations, and gaps in the literature. It also looked at the elements that influence the overall citation of articles in the field. Since 2021, there has been a considerable increase in the number of publications about digital financial inclusion. The analysis found that research in the domain of digital financial inclusion emphasized largely on sustainability in digital financial inclusion, Covid-19 and FinTech, technological advancement in the digital economy, and economic growth. Developed nations, such as China and the United States, made larger contributions to this study field, whereas developing and rising countries played a less significant role. This review significantly contributes to digital financial inclusion literature and economic applications. Furthermore, present study acts as a one-stop overview to gain a literature depth in the field of digital financial inclusion and avoid the redundancy in future research. The findings advocate for increasing research attention, particularly in developing countries, to address all aspects of digital financial inclusion and its impact on sustainable development.
