VERA-8B: Evidence-Grounded Audit Risk Reasoning from SEC Filings
VERA-8B is presented as an audit model built to cite evidence from SEC filings and abstain when support is incomplete.
The paper says standard financial language models can sound plausible while leaving audit judgments insufficiently grounded. Its proposed system combines supervised fine-tuning and GRPO under a shared evidence standard, and the authors report that it outperforms evaluated baselines. It also adds uncertainty qualification and abstention for cases where the filing evidence does not support a firm call. AuditBridge turns raw filings into verified records and reviewer-ready reports for practical audit review. ArXiv · AI/CL/LG's note
