Dataset Card for FinMultiHopQA
FinMultiHopQA is a KG-grounded benchmark of 15,600 qualitative and quantitative multi-hop questions over SEC 10-K filings. Every question is built from a typed path in FinReflectKG, a provenance-linked financial knowledge graph, and ships with the exact evidence chunks (filing, page, chunk) for each hop.
Dataset Details
Dataset Description
Curated by: Domyn
Language(s): English
License: CC-BY-NC-4.0
FinMultiHopQA tests whether models can combine evidence that is scattered across pages, filings, fiscal years, and companies. Questions require 2 or 3 reasoning hops and cover three document regimes: intra-document, inter-year (same company, different fiscal years), and cross-company. Answers are grounded only in the released evidence chunks, so no external knowledge is needed.

Dataset Creation
Motif families
Questions are instantiated from typed KG motifs, each under three evidence regimes with explicit provenance constraints:
- 2-hop bridge (
cross_company,cross_year,intra_doc): cross-company uses two distinct organizations with matched fiscal years; inter-year uses one organization across different years; intra-document uses one document but distinct pages/chunks (or distinct facts in a shared chunk). - 3-hop connector chain (
type1): connector pairs are chosen by IDF ranking within GICS strata, which suppresses generic connectors; the linking relation must share provenance with the anchor edges. - 3-hop multi-branch (
type2): three organization anchors (or one organization across three years) each linked independently to one shared connector node.
Generation and filtering
The pipeline generates a full corpus of 36,668 QA pairs; this benchmark is the filtered subset of 15,600. Filtering preserves the topology and sector balance of the full corpus.
Quality control
Every generated pair is scored by an LLM validator on five dimensions (0–10 each, max 50): multi-chunk dependency, financial context, answer grounding, causal-connection grounding, and natural analyst quality. Pairs below 45/50 are regenerated. Independent of the score, a pair is discarded if it:
- mentions page or section structure;
- is answerable from one evidence fact without combining the required hops;
- needs external knowledge not present in the evidence;
- asserts a fabricated causal link between companies that only share a generic term.
The rubric total is released as quality_score on every row.
Human (SME) validation
Two finance SMEs independently rated a fixed-seed, topology-stratified random sample of 360 QA pairs on four criteria. A separate SME judge-calibration study scored model answers on a distinct 360-pair panel (1,080 assessments).
Uses
- Evaluating LLM multi-hop reasoning over financial filings
- Comparing evidence-delivery strategies (KG-linked chunks vs. page windows vs. retrieval)
- Studying how performance changes with hop count, topology, and motif
The benchmark paper evaluates six evidence protocols: KG-linked provenance (E1), page windows (E2), page windows with distractors (E3), relevance-sorted descending (E4) and ascending (E5), and semantic retrieval (E6).
Known Issues
difficultyis an IDF heuristic (~80%hard), not a calibrated difficulty measure.
