An Analysis of Performance, Efficiency, and Sustainability in Islamic Banks Using Bibliometric Methods

The Performance, Efficiency, and Sustainability in Islamic Banks literature was thoroughly reviewed using a bibliometric approach that gathered 1,031 publications from Scopus-indexed journals published between 2008 and 2023. We sorted nations, institutions, sources, papers, and writers by performing an exhaustive data analysis using a suite of tools, including Excel, RStudio, and VOSviewer, to determine who has made the most significant contributions to the field of performance, efficiency, and sustainability in Islamic banks. Particularly after 2020, this study showed a dramatic increase in publishing rates. Important areas of study included Islamic banking and finance, Islamic finance and economic growth, Islamic finance and financial crises, and Islamic finance: performance and efficiency. Authors hailing from the US, UK, and Malaysia rose to the pinnacle of their fields quite quickly. Stakeholders may use these findings to inform their decision-making, particularly about the potential impact of performance, efficiency, and sustainability in Islamic banks.
