IGT @ FinMMEval 2026 Task 2: Question-Type Prompting with Targeted Extraction for Multilingual Financial QA

The IGT system tackles PolyFiQA Task 2 of the FinMMEval Lab, a multilingual financial QA challenge involving English SEC filings and news in five languages. It distinguishes two question families: numeric‑structured queries are answered via keyword extraction from filings, while synthesis queries use rule‑based passage selection from news. The approach yields a development ROUGE‑1 of ~0.395, a 60% boost over a generic RAG baseline, and places third among twelve teams on the official test set.

Enhancing Financial Question Answering: A Novel Benchmark Dataset of Banks' financial statements

FinRAG-QA is a new benchmark dataset for financial question answering, featuring 999 practitioner-curated questions on 10 standardised indicators drawn from 209 annual and Pillar 3 reports of 24 major European and U.S. banks between 2019 and 2023. The dataset focuses on cross‑institutional retrieval over documents averaging 198k words, making it longer than any existing financial QA resource. Experiments on a multi‑stage Retrieval‑Augmented Generation pipeline show that contextual chunk enrichment and a retrieval‑optimised embedding model significantly improve NDCG@10, while a reasoning‑optimised generator boosts answer accuracy from 44.6% to 79.0% when the correct document is retrieved.

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.
