Abstract: Abstract Herding behaviour in the financial market has been popular as a theoretical concept since the 1990s. Many articles have studied and discussed herding behaviour in the capital market, but research examining the causes or factors that trigger herding behaviour is minimal. The research themes are relatively underdeveloped because the majority of empirical research still struggles to answer the question of whether herding behaviour is found in the capital market or not. It has impeded our understanding and the development of a comprehensive theoretical framework of herding behaviour. The purpose of this paper is to conduct a bibliometric analysis and systematic literature review to provide an overview of the research findings, analyse the research profile, and guide the researcher to the most influential works and results related to herding behaviour. Based on 279 articles taken from the Scopus database, we mapped the co-occurrence of research through keywords analysis. This paper's main contribution is to build a structure of knowledge for herding behaviour in the capital market, elaborate and classify empirical research into relevant dimensions that can be used as a reference for comprehensively developing herding behaviour research. Finally, this systematic literature review's results may provide insight into future research prospects about herding behaviour.
