Sustainable Finance and Equitable Growth: An Empirical Review
Abstract
This chapter discusses major empirical discourses linking sustainable finance with equitable growth. The chapter examines the existing literature on sustainable finance and equitable growth published in Scopus during the period 2010-2025. VosViewer is utilized to conduct bibliographical coupling of the 737 research articles published on the topic. The analysis shows a surge in research publications since 2016 resulting from the introduction of UN SDGs and thereafter the post pandemic period, resulting from the growing interest on sustainable finance research. Thematic analysis highlights the overreliance on business and economic departments and reflects lack of research initiatives focusing on the interdisciplinary nature of the research theme. Based on the analysis, it is argued that the current research reinforce neoliberal paradigms rather than challenging structural inequities. This chapter serves as both a critique and a roadmap, urging scholars to confront the field's complicity in maintaining status quo power dynamics while charting pathways for radical reimagining.
