The stock market is one of the most dynamic financial markets, contributing actively to economic development. The Pakistan stock market (PSX) is a fast-growing emerging stock market. In recent years, it has witnessed growth both in terms of no of participants and market capitalization. Due to its emerging nature, researchers are also actively exploring various aspects of PSX. This study uses bibliometric analysis techniques to review the existing literature on PSX. We used 101 articles from the Web of Science database and found that most of the research is carried on in Pakistani institutions. Whereas the institutions from China and Lithuania are the main collaborators in this research. Moreover, journals like the International transaction journal of engineering management & applied sciences & technologies, African journal of business management, and Cogent economics & finance mainly publish these researches.
