Abstract

Financial large language models (FinLLMs) have been applied to various tasks in business, finance, accounting, and auditing. Complex financial regulations and standards are critical to financial services, which LLMs must comply with. However, FinLLMs’ performance in understanding and interpreting financial regulations has rarely been studied. Therefore, we organize the Regulations Challenge1, a shared task at COLING FinNLP-FNP-LLMFinLegal-2025. It encourages the academic community to explore the strengths and limitations of popular LLMs. We create 9 novel tasks and corresponding question sets. In this paper, we provide an overview of these tasks and summarize participants’ approaches and results. We aim to raise awareness of FinLLMs’ professional capability in financial regulations.
