Abstract

The integration of big data in the financial sector has increasingly attracted scholarly attention, particularly in areas such as risk management, fraud detection, algorithmic trading, and investment optimization. Given the rapid development of this field, it is essential to map research trends and identify emerging directions that shape the future of financial innovation. This study applies a bibliometric approach using 3,829 articles retrieved from the Scopus database from 1981 to 2025, with data processed through R Studio and the Bibliometrix-Biblioshiny application. The objective is to explore the intellectual landscape of big data finance and reveal research frontiers as well as thematic evolution. The results show a sharp increase in publications after 2015, alongside the growth of fintech and artificial intelligence applications, with dominant themes including blockchain integration, risk analytics, and predictive modelling. Cross-disciplinary and cross-regional collaborations continue to expand. These findings provide a comprehensive overview of how big data has shaped financial studies and offer insights for potential future research directions.
