arXiv:2606. 25007v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Financial fraud detection in digital banking requires reasoning over multiple heterogeneous event streams -- transactions, login sessions, risk signals -- that individually appear benign but collectively reveal fraudulent patterns.

FINESSE is an agent‑based simulation framework that generates synthetic, structured datasets of multiple interdependent financial event streams, such as transactions, payments, account status changes, and policy interventions. Each stream has its own action space, schema, and variable types, and the streams are coupled through agents’ evolving latent states, allowing temporally rich interactions. The accompanying FINESSE‑Bench dataset supports four tasks—balance forecasting, transaction fraud detection, missed payment prediction, and next event prediction—and baseline results are provided using various time‑series and event‑sequence methods.

MINT is a graph neural network framework designed to detect illicit accounts in financial transaction networks. It addresses structural inconsistency by using an attentive message‑passing scheme that tracks deviations between nodes in bi‑directional flows and a transaction salience module that regularizes node interactions. To cope with limited labeled data, MINT employs Positive‑Unlabeled learning, leveraging a small set of known illicit nodes and many unlabeled ones, and demonstrates superior performance on three benchmark datasets.

The paper presents a deep learning credit risk early warning system that fuses heterogeneous data sources, such as transaction behaviors and social networks, using deep neural networks and attention mechanisms. By extracting multidimensional features, the system establishes an early identification mechanism for corporate and individual credit risks. Testing shows that this approach improves the accuracy and timeliness of risk warnings compared to traditional rule‑based engines.

The paper introduces Temporal-Context Edge Enrichment (TCEE), a framework that uses frozen time‑series foundation models (TSFMs) to summarise each account’s transaction history and enrich transaction representations with temporal context. These enriched edges can be directly scored for classification or used as features in a graph neural network (GNN). Across six AMLWorld datasets, TCEE improves PR‑AUC by an average of 10.8% over the best baseline and trains 6.0× faster; when combined with a GNN, it yields an additional 4.8% improvement on smaller datasets and a 14.5% gain on an Ethereum phishing dataset.
