Summary: | Over the years, interlocking directorates have been discussed. The integration of interlocking directorates has led to conflicts of interest, abuse of authority, information sharing, and unsustainable corporate governance. However, the emergence of fintech necessitated substantial organizational investment and security. Interlocking directorates and fintech practices have not been studied before. This study will undertake a bibliometric evaluation of board interlocks and sustainability literature. The recent bibliometric analysis emphasizes board financial ability but not financial technology. Bibliometric analysis provides information on the quantity of publications, the most influential authors, the countries where the topic has been explored most, and the journals that are published on related topics. There is substantial study on sustainability and interlocking directorates but none on fintech practices. Thus, this study uses keyword and citation cluster analysis to show present subject concentrations, which may inform future research in the field. In addition, this study found that interlocking directorates can support sustainable fintech practices. Therefore, future research should incorporate fintech as part of the organization’s corporate governance strategy. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.
