FinExam-10K: When Retrieval Helps Financial Reasoning?

Read the original on arXiv Computation and Language →

FinExam-10K is a new English benchmark for financial reasoning, comprising 10,198 expert‑reannotated questions covering CFA Levels I‑III and FRM Parts I‑II. The dataset is split into a 5,110‑question release and a 5,088‑question held‑out set for a quarterly leaderboard, with separate Full‑Coverage and Context‑Complete Reasoning tracks. Across 17 models, the best overall accuracy is 85.29 %, but performance drops on harder subsets, and retrieval‑augmented methods like Function‑Graph‑RAG provide modest gains when gated appropriately.

FinRiskAtlas: Decision-Aligned Evaluation of Large Language Models for Financial Risk Review

FinRiskAtlas is a Chinese-language benchmark designed to evaluate large language models (LLMs) for financial risk review by focusing on decision‑aligned tasks rather than generic financial knowledge. It contains 9,742 instances across 53 task families, including 42 domain‑knowledge families and 11 downstream review operations defined by explicit evaluation contracts. The extended FinRisk‑Ask framework replays 680 pre‑action states from 104 professional trajectories, withholding future evidence during inference to assess evidence‑state control and request targeting. Results across 33 model configurations show that operation‑level evaluation yields distinct rankings and that knowledge‑based shortlisting can incur significant regret, while frequent use of the Ask branch does not necessarily improve evidence acquisition, highlighting gaps in broad financial capability scores.
