🌟 Overview

FinAuditing is the first taxonomy-aligned, structure-aware, multi-document benchmark for evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs) on financial auditing tasks. Built from real US-GAAP-compliant XBRL filings, FinAuditing defines three complementary subtasks: FinSM for semantic consistency, FinRE for relational consistency, and FinMR for numerical consistency, each targeting a distinct aspect of structured auditing reasoning. It further proposes a unified evaluation framework integrating retrieval, classification, and reasoning metrics across these subtasks.

📚 Datasets Released

📂 Dataset	📝 Description
FinSM	Evaluation set for FinSM subtask within FinAuditing benchmark. This task follows the information retrieval paradigm: given a query describing a financial term that represents either currency or concentration of credit risk, an XBRL filing, and a US-GAAP taxonomy, the output is the set of mismatched US-GAAP tags after retrieval.
FinRE	Evaluation set for FinRE subtask within FinAuditing benchmark. This is a relation extraction task, given two specific elements $e_1$ and $e_2$, an XBRL filing, and a US-GAAP taxonomy, the goal of this task is to classify three relation error types.
FinMR	Evaluation set for FinMR subtask within FinAuditing benchmark. This is a mathematical reasoning task, given two questions $q_1$ and $q_2$, where $q_1$ concerns the extraction of a reported value and $q_2$ pertains to the calculation of the corresponding real value, an XBRL filing, and a US-GAAP taxonomy, the task is to extract the reported value for a given instance in the XBRL filing and to compute the numeric value for that instance, which is then used to verify whether the reported value is correct.
FinSM_Sub	FinSM subset for ICAIF 2025.
FinRE_Sub	FinRE subset for ICAIF 2025.
FinMR_Sub	FinMR subset for ICAIF 2025.
