The concept of enterprise risk management (ERM) has received attention as a system to manage organisational-wide risk by employing a more integrated and holistic strategy. Due to the complexity of the business environment, emerging risks and the strengthening of business resilience during a crisis, enterprise risk management is relevant, particularly for business organisations. As a result, numerous studies have been conducted to investigate the determinants and implications of adopting or implementing ERM. Thus, this paper examines the nature and current trends of enterprise risk management research using bibliometric analysis. A total of 518 documents were retrieved from the Scopus database. Our analyses provide evidence that enterprise risk management has been explored in various disciplines, mostly business, management, and accounting. The results also reveal the increasing trends of ERM research, which is associated with crises like financial and pandemic outbreaks. More importantly, the result of keyword analysis demonstrates five main themes that best capture the heterogeneous nature of ERM research. However, the business and accounting themes still offer a limited number of keywords. Therefore, this study reveals a promising and multidisciplinary field of research and provides insightful information for future research. It is also a starting point for professionals and researchers to fully understand the elements of ERM research and the potentiality for a more systematic approach.
