Overview of FinanceMath.

Introduction

Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive problem-solving capabilities across various domains, but their ability to handle knowledge-intensive mathematical reasoning in specialized fields remains understudied. To address this gap, we introduce FinanceMath, a benchmark designed to evaluate LLMs' performance in knowledge-intensive mathematical reasoning within the finance domain. FinanceMath comprises 1200 examples covering a wide range of finance subareas, with 40.2% of problems requiring interpretation of tabular data. Each problem is accompanied by expert-annotated, Python-formatted solutions.

📢 Update (July 2026): the FinanceMath test set annotations (Python solutions and answers) are now publicly released. You can evaluate on the test set locally — see the GitHub repository for the data and evaluation scripts.
