Financial literacy has become an increasingly important research topic due to the growing complexity of financial systems, the rapid expansion of digital financial services, and the need to improve individual financial well-being. This study aims to map the development of global scientific publications on financial literacy during the 2021–2025 period using a bibliometric approach. Data was collected from the Scopus database and analyzed using Biblioshiny and VOSviewer to identify publication trends, productive countries, collaboration patterns, and keyword networks. The results indicate a significant increase in the number of publications, reflecting growing academic interest in financial literacy worldwide. Keyword analysis reveals that financial education, financial behavior, financial inclusion, and financial well-being remain dominant themes. Furthermore, overlay visualization shows an emerging research focus on digital finance, artificial intelligence, sustainability, and sustainable development. These findings suggest that financial literacy research is evolving from traditional educational perspectives toward broader issues related to digital transformation and sustainable development.
