InvestorBench pairs a task-agnostic LLM agent framework with standardized datasets and simulated market environments so different backbone models can be compared on the same footing. The agent framework decomposes into Brain, Perception, Profile, Memory, and Action modules, with data drawn from open sources and third-party APIs including Yahoo Finance and SEC EDGAR.

The authors evaluate thirteen LLMs as backbones across market environments, scored with standard quantitative finance metrics. Published at ACL 2025 main conference (arXiv:2412.18174); no dedicated public code repository was found at time of indexing.
