FinGREAT: Evaluating LLMs on Financial Graph-guided Retrieval And Typing

We investigate whether open-weight LLMs can extract and classify evidence corresponding to predefined double-entry accounting relationships underlying the text.

Key points

  • Financial disclosures express the underlying relationships of double-entry accounting through unstructured text.
  • While financial LLM benchmarks predominantly emphasize question answering and classification, schema-guided evidence discovery remains relatively under-explored.
  • Using a financial accounting graph comprising 11 nodes (accounts) and 11 edges (transaction types), we evaluate mid-sized models from 5 open-weight families across 1,300 SEC 10-K Item 7 filings spanning 26 years, comparing their extraction performance against three proprietary models.
  • Building on this study, we introduce a human-annotated relation classification benchmark comprising 483 passages across three financial accounting categories, evaluating 34 open-weight and 10 proprietary models.
