FinBen evaluates LLMs across eight aspects: information extraction, textual analysis, question answering, text generation, risk management, forecasting, decision-making, and bilingual English/Spanish coverage. It introduced the first stock-trading evaluation for financial LLMs plus novel agent and retrieval-augmented generation evaluations, and released new datasets for regulations and stock trading.
The authors evaluated 21 representative LLMs (including GPT-4, ChatGPT, and Gemini), finding strong performance on extraction and textual analysis but weakness on advanced reasoning, generation, and forecasting. Published in the NeurIPS 2024 Datasets and Benchmarks track (arXiv:2402.12659); it grew out of the FLARE benchmark (see related). The repository carries no license file at time of indexing.
