arXiv:2605. 05409v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Financial document question answering (QA) demands complex multi-step numerical reasoning over heterogeneous evidence--structured tables, textual narratives, and footnotes--scattered across corporate filings.

arXiv:2604. 10015v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Recent studies demonstrate that tool-calling capability enables large language models (LLMs) to interact with external environments for long-horizon financial tasks.

arXiv:2607. 28374v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Multimodal agents for visual question answering increasingly operate as multi-step trajectories that interleave perception, retrieval, and reasoning, yet evaluation still largely reduces to final-answer accuracy.

CIFQA is a deterministic, tool‑grounded multi‑agent framework that separates language understanding from numerical execution for financial question answering. It assigns specialized agents for interpretation, routing, parameter extraction, computation planning, and response generation, while deterministic Python tools perform the calculations. On a fixed‑deposit benchmark, CIFQA achieves 95.54% accuracy on calculation‑intensive queries and 90.87% overall, outperforming larger LLM baselines and showing that architecture, not scale, drives numerical reliability.

arXiv:2608. 06108v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Investment competence is inherently personalized: the same market evidence can justify different actions for investors with different goals, horizons, portfolios, and risk boundaries.

Multimodal agents for visual question answering increasingly operate as multi-step trajectories that interleave perception, retrieval, and reasoning, yet evaluation still largely reduces to final-answer accuracy. This aggregate signal cannot tell whether a correct answer was reached through grounded evidence, language priors, or accidental error cancellation.
