Do several discussions involve understanding sustainability, mainly how far our finite resource planet can support unlimited economic growth? Given the financial crisis experienced in 2007, nations seek less aggressive economic arrangements that contemplate the balance between an inclusive economy, shared social well-being, and a healthy and sustainable environment. A financially enlightened population can be one of the factors of transition between the world of the traditional economy and the sustainable economy since citizens with a certain degree of proficiency in personal finan

This whole scenario raises the following question: How are studies in financial education and sustainability? This article aims to analyze the trajectory of discussions on sustainability in financial education through hybrid techniques for assessing scientific impact and productivity. In addition, cluster analysis with the software VOSviewer and CitNetExplorer.

This work performs a descriptive and bibliometric analysis with evaluative and relational techniques guided by Koseoglu (2016) work. The criteria used to assess productivity include: per year, authors, references, institutions, countries and journals, and an analysis of the co-occurrence of words; all these involving cluster solutions obtained through the software CitNetExplorer and VOSviewer (Van Eck & Waltman, 2014). To obtain consistent results, followed the procedures suggested by Paré et al. (2016) for literature reviews approaching systematicity and transparency; the processes are repres

297 articles related financial education only to the social pillar through themes linked to education in general, social mobility, quality of life, social vulnerability, skill, behavior, and financial literacy. In turn, 59 articles related financial education exclusively to the economic pillar, which means that these studies addressed macroeconomic issues such as the role of financial education in economic development, strategies, and business performance, formulation and conduct of government policies, and their relationship with entrepreneurship. Still, 110 articles cover both the social and

This research sought to capture an overview of discussions in the financial education and sustainability literature, verifying the distribution of articles according to the year, country, author, institution, and journal; all of this to identify the concentration of research in productivity and impact. In addition, a co-occurrence analysis of words was carried out, and the most popular lines of research in the field were identified. Some analyses were reinforced with cluster solutions for greater detail. We can conclude that studies in financial education and sustainability have gained popular
