Abstract

Since the early 1980s, Event Study has been widely used in Business Finance. To explore the research overview and hot spots of Event Study in this field, 3524 articles related to Event Study of Business Finance in the Web of Science Core Collection database are taken as the research object, and the bibliometric analysis was carried out by using Web of Science analysis tool, the analysis of subject bases was carried out by using Histcite, and the knowledge map such as keyword clustering and timeline was drawn by using CiteSpace for visual analysis. The results show that the number of papers published generally indicates an increasing trend; compared with the United States, Britain, and other countries, China still has a certain gap in the application and exploration of Event Study. The classical literature is a bridge in the history of the development of the discipline, which has made a great contribution to the research progress of the discipline. The application of Event Study to measure stock market returns and evaluate the economic effects of corporate investment activities is a research hotspot in this field, and the analysis of the impact of policies and economic news is a more cutting-edge direction.
