FinanceHarness: Autonomous Financial Deep Research Framework
The paper says finance research agents need point-in-time tests and domain-specific workflows, not generic report writing.
FinanceHarness wraps finance tools, data construction, agent execution, and reward modeling into an end-to-end research setup. Its companion benchmark, FinanceGym, uses thesis-driven questions with rubrics that check both pre-cutoff and post-cutoff criteria to limit future-information leakage. Expert validation passed 82% of the benchmark items. On the same open-weight backbone, FinanceHarness raised the rubric score from 25.3% to 32.4%, while even a top model pairing stayed below 45%.
