ESG reporting has attracted a lot of attention during the past several decades. However, bibliometric analysis on this topic remains limited. This paper aims to advance our understanding of ESG reporting, to cluster and map academic literature connected with ESG reporting and to attempt to give a research agenda for future research. We undertake a bibliometric analysis review of the current literature to discover present and future research directions of ESG reporting. In this study, the authors used datasets from the Web of Science (WoS) database, covering 869 research papers from 2014 to 2024 and using the Bibliometrix package also known as “Bibliometrix 3.0” or “Biblioshiny”. Bibliometric analysis offers a comprehensive overview of a certain field, such as authorship trends, geographical spread, research importance, influential authors and publications, new concepts, and emerging ideas. This research has implications for both scientific researchers and corporate world.
