Description
Summary:<p dir="ltr">Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping finance by transforming decision-making, risk management, and stakeholder engagement. This study provides a theory-informed synthesis of 84 peer-reviewed articles (2022–2025) using PRISMA-based screening, bibliometric analysis, and Structural Topic Modeling (STM). Six themes emerge: financial decision-making, ESG analytics, stock market prediction, advanced modeling for fraud detection and explainable AI, ChatGPT in accounting and education, and sentiment analysis with domain-specific LLMs. Findings show that generative AI enhances predictive capabilities and ESG assessments but raises issues of bias, transparency, and regulation. The review outlines future research priorities around interpretability, multimodal data, and governance frameworks.</p><h2 dir="ltr">Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Finance Research Letters<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.frl.2025.108797" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.frl.2025.108797</a></p>
