# FinTrust leaderboard

Measures how trustworthy LLMs are in finance across seven dimensions: truthfulness, safety (jailbreaks over 10 financial-crime categories), fairness, robustness, privacy, transparency or fiduciary disclosure, and knowledge discovery.

## About this benchmark

- Maker: NYU Shanghai; National University of Singapore; Yale University; NYU Center for Data Science
- Year: 2025
- Use case: Financial advice and safety
- Size: 15,680 instances across 7 dimensions
- Public split: Full dataset on Hugging Face. The GitHub repo has per-dimension scripts and 100-case samples.
- Grading: Per dimension. GPT-4.1 mini acts as judge (safety 1-10, informativeness 1-5 and others), with rule-based scoring for hallucination and certainty and Cohen's d for fairness. There is no aggregate score.
- Licence: MIT (Hugging Face dataset card). The GitHub repo declares no licence.
- Submission: none
- Products allowed: No
- Latest version: arXiv v1 (2025-10-17), EMNLP 2025 Main
- What it does not cover: No single headline score and no agentic or tool-using evaluation. Evaluates bare models only.
- Last checked: 1 Nov 2026
