Abstract

Dünyanın gündeminde iklim değişikliği olarak tanımlanan bir gerçekliğin varlığı çevre yetkilileri ile finans uzmanlarının bir araya gelmesine ve yeşil finansın araçlarından biri olan yeşil tahvillerin ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Yeşil tahviller, Paris Anlaşması'nın 2°C sıcaklık hedefine ulaşılmasına yardımcı olan emisyon azaltımlarını, sürdürülebilir kalkınmayı ve diğer temiz üretim yatırımlarını finanse etmek için kullanılmaya başlanmış ve iklim değişikliği ile mücadelede önemli bir rol oynamaya başlamıştır. Bunun en önemli nedeni yeşil tahvillerin sadece çevre dostu projeler için kullanılmasıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, son yıllarda yeşil tahvil piyasasına dair artan ilginin yeşil tahvil ile ilgili çalışmaları teşvik edip etmediğini araştırmak ve ilgili alandaki yayınların içerik analizini yaparak literatüre katkı sağlamaktır. Bu çalışmada, 2007 yılından itibaren piyasası oluşmaya başlayan yeşil tahvil üzerine yazılmış 675 makale ve 30 derleme makaleden oluşan toplam 705 yayının bibliyometrik analizi yapılmıştır. Bibliyometrik analizi yapabilmek, ağların ve eğilimlerin görselleştirilmesini sağlamak için VOSviewer (1.6.20) yazılımı kullanılmıştır. Çalışmada, altı araştırma sorusu temelinde bibliyometrik analiz yapılmış ve analiz sonucunda yeşil tahvil ile ilgili yayınların özellikle 2019 yılından itibaren yeşil tahvil piyasasının gelişimiyle paralellik göstererek arttığı gözlemlenmiştir. Çin’in 228 yayın ile en fazla çalışmaya sahip olduğu, ilgili alandaki makalelerin çoğunluğunun etki faktörü yüksek dergilerde yayımlandığı ve en etkili iki yazarın Taghizadeh-Hesary, F. ve Naaem, M.A. olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

A Bibliometric Analysis on Articles Published in the Field of Green Bonds

Abstract

The presence of a reality defined as climate change on the world's agenda has brought environmental authorities and financial experts together and led to the emergence of green bonds, one of the instruments of green finance. Green bonds have started to play an important role in the fight against climate change. Green bonds are used only for environmentally friendly projects. The aim of this study is to investigate whether the increasing interest in the green bond market in recent years has encouraged studies on green bonds and to contribute to the literature by conducting a content analysis of publications in the related field. In this study, we conducted a bibliometric analysis of a total of 705 publications, including 675 articles and 30 review articles, written on green bonds, whose market has started to emerge since 2007. VOSviewer (1.6.20) software was used for bibliometric analysis and visualization of networks and trends. In the study, bibliometric analysis was conducted on the basis of six research questions and as a result of the analysis, it was observed that publications on green bonds have increased in parallel with the development of the green bond market, especially since 2019. It is concluded that China has the highest number of publications with 228 publications, the majority of the articles published in the relevant field are published in journals with high impact factor and the two most influential authors are Taghizadeh-Hesary, F. and Naaem, M.A.
