A thorough understanding of these latter would enable policymakers, regulators and bank managers to anticipate banks' failures and, academicians to advance their research. To facilitate further knowledge in this field, this paper reviews 69 studies published between 1987 and 2019 in 40 peer‐reviewed journals. We argue that despite the extensive empirical and theoretical work accomplished over the last decades, the issue of credit risk remains an unsolved line of inquiry, which leaves ample room for critical debates. Beside mapping the emerging discourse on this area, this study proposes a promising future research agenda to guide re
