Abstract: Knowledge sharing (KS) has been gaining the attention of researchers, including the banking sector, for decades. Current research on KS in this sector covers various sources and repositories, making a systematic literature review necessary for a better understanding of the subject. The aim of this article is to understand how studies on KS in the banking sector are characterised. This research contributes to the literature in three ways: 1) it characterises the studies on KS in the banking sector; 2) it presents new insights into KS in the banking sector, for example the influence of digital media, hypercompetitivity, the hiding of knowledge, and social, structural and technological factors in KS; 3) it proposes a research agenda to investigate constructs aligned to the recent changes in the banking sector.

Keywords: knowledge sharing; banking sector; knowledge management; systematic literature review.
