FINESSE: An Agent-Based Simulator and Benchmark Dataset for Multimodal Financial Event Sequences

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.

PAWS: Policy-driven Agentic World Simulation

PAWS is a new dataset for policy-driven agentic world simulation that covers 36 verified U.S. financial and economic policy episodes. It includes 12,727 policy-linked news records and 65,291 stakeholder actions, each linked to supporting news and represented by a multi-layer event frame with interaction mode, financial-action family, semantic attributes, and taxonomic mappings. The dataset aligns actions with daily market-return context and has been validated by AI and human reviewers, demonstrating high agreement on interaction mode and revealing challenges in detecting rare stakeholder actions.

Semantic Pareto-DQN: A Multi-Objective Reinforcement Learning Framework for Financial Anomaly Detection

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: An Outcome-Supervised Reflective LLM Agent Framework for Non-Stationary Payment Fraud Detection

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.
