This study aims to analyze the temporal development and conceptual contribution of the journal of "Corporate Governance: An International Review (CGIR)" proliferated through impactful theories and publications. Research Findings/Insights: Using 1,112 documents from the Scopus database over 1993-2021, we found that CGIR has established itself as a prominent journal in the field of corporate governance (CG) by extensively contributing to the exploration and maturation of its concepts and theories. The study identifies four main clusters: CG and Executives' compensation schemes, CG and performance, CG key stakeholders, and CG pillars. CGIR is recommended to have further studies about CG topics in small and medium enterprises and developing countries. Theoretical/Academic Implications: We gather 1,112 documents over 1993-2021 and apply bibliometric techniques encompassing bibliographic coupling, keyword analysis, and content analysis using R-Studio and VOSviewer. It is also worth investigating CG topics in conjunction with the rise of ESG publications from regional, national, and global perspectives. Practitioner/Policy Implications: The analysis is beneficial for the scientific community, CG institutes, corporations, universities, scholars, and governmental entities.
