The development of new information technologies, as well as the profile of the new generations, have encouraged financial institutions to seek greater inclusion of their products and services in a large part of the world’s population. Due to the above, there is an increase in the interest of having a society with a greater financial culture that allows it to make better decisions in its particular economy. The growing interest in the field of financial education is also observed in the scientific community. The present work focuses on the search for the scientific literature related to financial education between the years 1990-2018. Bibliometric techniques and the Web of Science scientific database are used as a source of information. The objective is to analyze the information found, and visualize the evolution of the scientific contributions made to this concept, the number of publications, the citation structure, the most influential journals, the authors, universities and countries with the greatest activity on this subject, from In the same way, with the above we will be able to establish the level of scientific contributions that have been made by developing countries on this issue, which is so important for every society by virtue of the benefit of learning to manage their personal economies. The initial results show a total of 2134 articles, it is observed that the highest production goes from 2016 to 2018. The Economic of Education Review magazine has the highest number of publications and citations. The Institution with the most research is the National Bureau of Economic Research and finally the United States of America stands out for its important activity in the area. From the emergence of new variables in financial structures, education on this topic will continue to present new routes to be explored by the scientific community at the service of society.

Purpose:Performance measurement systems (PMS) in Non-profit Organizations (NPOs) are more complex than in for-profit organizations. NPOs have an orientation toward social mission and values, and they consider not only organizational efficiency and viability, but also the social impact of the organization. This research provides a comprehensive synthesis of PMSs in NPOs. Design/Methodology/Approach:Using a literature review, supported by bibliometric and network analyses. A paper set of 240 articles related to this research field is examined. Topics that are the most prevalent in this research area and their interrelationships are identified, presenting an outline of current efforts. Findings:Despite the descriptive analyses for the paper set, a framework is proposed for organizing the design-implementation factors of PMSs in non-profit organizations, identifying the main requirements for their successful development. Originality/Value:Investigation on performance measurement in non-profit organizations is still in its early stages of development with many opportunities to further develop the field. Conceptual frameworks and models, as well as specific theories, are being generated for this field of research, and the process of adapting models from the general field of performance measurement is taking place. The meta-framework that organizes the main research topics of PMS in non-profit organizations and the framework that consolidates factors that influence the design-implementation of PMSs in non-profit organizations developed represents this paper contribution.
