The paper introduces the Finance‑Aware Graph Spatio‑Temporal Network (FA‑GSTN) for forecasting realized volatility by treating the implied volatility surface as a dynamic graph. Nodes represent grid points on the surface, with edges capturing adaptive intra‑day spatial and explicit inter‑day temporal relationships, while finance‑aware node features (e.g., option Greeks) and a multi‑scale temporal smoothing gate address high‑frequency noise. Experiments on a large equity options dataset show FA‑GSTN achieves state‑of‑the‑art predictive accuracy (R² up to 0.473) and outperforms Vision Transformer baselines even with only one year of training data, demonstrating robustness during market stress.

Credit risk detection, particularly mitigating individual fraud, is crucial for maintaining the stability of digital financial ecosystems. Accurately identifying credit fraud among billions of users is critical for minimizing financial losses and safeguarding the sustainability of inclusive financial services.

The paper examines how a breach of a single AI vendor—used by banks for fraud screening, credit decisions, AML triage, customer analytics, and internal support—can spread through operational, informational, and financial links, ultimately causing losses that resemble a traditional banking crisis. It introduces a four‑layer heterogeneous network linking AI vendors, banks, interbank exposures, and customer accounts, and presents CFC‑Prop, a stochastic epidemic‑and‑clearing model that reproduces heavy‑tailed loss distributions and sensitivity to patch latency on a synthetic dataset of 60 vendors, 220 banks, and 1,400 interbank exposures. Additionally, the authors develop CFC‑GNN, an early‑warning graph‑based model that predicts high‑cascade‑risk vendors with AUROC 0.82 and AUPRC 0.60, and they release all code, data, and scripts for reproducibility.
