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.

TxSum introduces a user-centered approach to understanding Ethereum transactions by providing structured, risk-aware explanations grounded at the token‑flow level. The authors built a dataset of 187 complex transactions with 2,375 token‑flow annotations and transaction‑level summaries, and developed MATEX, a multi‑agent framework that retrieves external knowledge and audits explanations for factual consistency. MATEX outperforms existing baselines, improving user comprehension from 52.9% to 76.5% and increasing malicious‑transaction rejection from 36.0% to 88.0% while keeping false‑rejection rates low.

arXiv:2607. 09641v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Financial anomaly detection suffers from extreme class imbalance, causing traditional single-objective algorithms to exhibit ``fraud collapse'', defaulting to the majority class and failing to balance anomaly interdiction with customer friction.

SR‑Fraud is a framework that uses a frozen, stateless LLM agent to score transactions in real time while an offline reflection agent proposes boundary hypotheses based on matured errors. The system then verifies these hypotheses deterministically before updating its knowledge state. On a production payment‑fraud benchmark, SR‑Fraud outperforms both static and periodically retrained CatBoost models and successfully detects an emerging fraud burst.
