Utilizing the financial-specialized model FinNemotron

Xianchao Mr. Wutwist, developing and releasing language models and inference datasets specialized for the financial sector.FollowI was introduced. 
The inference model featured this time is "FinNemotron-R1" and an inference dataset based on Japanese financial statements "FinQA-Ja "is.

Financial inference model "FinNemotron-R1"

This model aims to support decision-making in the financial sector through inference based on financial data. Comparing it with existing financial models (Bloomberg, PFN, Fin-R1, etc.), the lack of Japanese language support and issues with open source were pointed out. It was emphasized that the financial sector in particular requires white Box models that can clearly show the inference process, rather than black Box AI.

"FinQA-Ja" inference dataset using Japanese financial statements

NVIDIA has developed the "FinQA-Ja" inference dataset based on Japanese financial statements, utilizing XBRL-formatted financial data published by the Financial Services Agency's EDINET. This dataset generates questions from tabular financial information, and the model learns inference steps to derive answers while providing evidence.

For example, to answer a question such as "What is the ratio of unpaid compensation to total liabilities in the 15th period?", the process includes searching for the relevant columns and rows, calculating, and deriving the answer. Data categorized by difficulty level is also compatible with SFT (supervised fine tuning) and reinforcement learning, enabling responses that are practical in nature.

Model performance and implementation environment

The presentation introduced a highly accurate inference environment using the Qwen-based 7B model. This model achieved an accuracy of approximately 78-80​ ​% on the English dataset and approximately 70% on the Japanese dataset, while also reducing the GPU load. Future deployment of even larger models, such as 32B, 443B, and 240B, is planned. It was also emphasized that the model can be deployed securely and flexibly in cloud and offline environments through NVIDIA platforms such as NeMo and NIM. The ability to choose the model based on corporate privacy protection and operational environment is cited as a major practical advantage.
