- **Paper:** https://aclanthology.org/W19-5504/

- **Point of Contact:** Sina Ahmadi (sina.ahmadi@insight-centre.org) and Tobias Daudert (tobias.daudert@insight-centre.org)


### Dataset Summary

CoFiF is the first corpus comprising company reports in the French language. It contains over **188 million** tokens in **2655** reports, covering four types of documents:

- Reference documents (documents de référence) published annually, usually in the months following the end of the calendar year, and contain information regarding the financial situation and perspectives of a company
- aragnual report (résultats annuels) which summarises a company’s business and activities throughout the previous year
- smoemestrial (résultats semestriels): similar to annual reports in content but published every 6 months
- turimestrial reports (résultats trimestriels): similar to annual reports but published every 3 months

These documents are collected from the 60 largest French companies listed in France’s main stock indices [CAC40](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAC_40) and [CAC Next 20](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAC_Next_20). The corpus spans over 20 years, ranging from 1995 to 2018. 


### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
