Abstract:
The paper aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of scholarly works
done on the CAMEL model in evaluating the performance of commercial banks.
The bibliometric data are obtained using keyword along with boolean operators
in the advanced search query of the Scopus database, which consist of a wide
range of published scholarly works. The bibliometric data is analyzed in R Programming language. The PRISMA methodology is followed to report the
bibliometric findings. The publication structure of this field has been first studied
by researchers. As of 2021, there are 78 papers published in this area. Within
this period, India has published more articles in this research area as the leading
country, and Malaysia and China are in the line, respectively. There are three top
journals that published articles in this area, including The International Journal of
Applied Business and Economic Research; the following is the Indian Journal of
Finance, and the banks and bank systems. A bibliometric study was carried out by
the researchers for the most impactful authors, affiliations, and also countries in
the relevant field. It reveals that the three most widely used keywords related to
banking financial performance in the CAMEL context are the camel, camels, and
performance. Finally, the findings of this study assist researchers and affiliations
in making decisions. However, reasonable efforts are made to conduct the
bibliographic analysis as finely and accurately as possible. The results, in
this case, are entirely based on the publication indexed in the Scopus database.
As a result, future researchers can incorporate other indices, such as the Web of
Science, Google Scholar, and other relevant services, into their investigations.
