Abstract

Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) has emerged as a prominent area of inquiry among researchers and academicians in recent years. This study employs bibliometric analysis to map the intellectual structure and research trajectory of SRI literature. Data were sourced from the Scopus database, encompassing publications from 1990 to 2025. Following rigorous screening protocols, 2,105 relevant documents were identified for analysis. Utilizing R Studio and VOS viewer software, the study explores the temporal evolution of SRI research, alongside identifying the most influential authors, institutions, sources, and countries contributing to the field. Additionally, key thematic patterns and frequently occurring terms are examined to delineate the conceptual landscape. The findings offer valuable insights into the development, current dynamics, and prospective directions of scholarly work in Socially Responsible Investment.
