Research data of 152 documents were published from 1992 to 2019 obtained from the Scopus database. The results showed that the most productive countries, research institutions and individual researchers in the publication of sustainable finance studies were the United Kingdom; Rheinisch-Westfalische Technische Hochschule Aachen; and Haigh, M. The most amount of funding sponsors in international publications in sustainable finance studies was the National Natural Science Foundation of China. The most intensive subject areas and publication sources in sustainable finance studies were Business, Management and Accounting, and Journal of Sustainable Finance and Investment. There were five collaborative researchers’ group patterns. This research proposes a convergence axis classification consisting of sustainable finance studies to characterize the body of knowledge generated from three decades of studies: Bank, Country, Finance, Sustainable, and Policy, abbreviated as BCFSP themes.
