Abstract: The increasing number of laws towards corporate social responsibility (CSR) around the globe are increasing the involvement of CSR in financial performance (FP) in research as well as business domain. To analyse and visualise the knowledge map of CSR related to FP, this study collects bibliometric information from the Web of Science database. Further, the study used bibliometric and network visualisation methods to analyse the bibliometric information through VOSviewer software. Analysis of 1752 documents reveals that CSR and FP is an emerging research topic, and a substantial amount of research is performed by developed countries. The study also found that environmental management, gender diversity, board composition, board of directors, data envelopment analysis, meta-analysis, family firms, and information asymmetry are the primeval area of study among the researchers. The study proposes a novel contribution to the existing literature by conducting the first bibliometric and visualisation analysis in CSR and FP.
