用知识图谱和大模型提升金融因果分析,让投资决策更精准。

FinCARE: Financial Causal Analysis with Reasoning and Evidence

  • 融合金融知识图谱与大模型推理,优化三种因果发现算法。
  • 在500家公司数据上,最高提升因果推断准确率366%。
  • 适合量化投资、风控建模等需要因果洞察的金融从业者。

投资组合管理依赖相关性分析和经验法则,难以捕捉真实驱动业绩的因果关系。本文提出一种混合框架,将统计因果发现算法与来自两个互补来源的领域知识结合:从美国证券交易委员会10-K文件提取的金融知识图谱,以及大语言模型的概念推理能力。该方法通过算法编码知识图谱约束,并利用大模型生成假设,系统性增强三种代表性因果发现范式——基于约束的(PC)、基于评分的(GES)和连续优化(NOTEARS)。在包含500家公司的合成金融数据集上,三类算法均实现显著提升:PC(F1: 0.622 vs. 0.459,+36%),GES(F1: 0.735 vs. 0.367,+100%),NOTEARS(F1: 0.759 vs. 0.163,+366%)。框架支持可靠的反事实预测,平均绝对误差为0.003610,干预效应方向判断完全准确。该方法通过将统计发现扎根于金融领域知识,同时保持实证验证,为投资经理提供主动风险管理与战略决策所需的因果基础。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Portfolio managers rely on correlation-based analysis and heuristic methods that fail to capture true causal relationships driving performance. We present a hybrid framework that integrates statistical causal discovery algorithms with domain knowledge from two complementary sources: a financial knowledge graph extracted from SEC 10-K filings and large language model reasoning. Our approach systematically enhances three representative causal discovery paradigms, constraint-based (PC), score-based (GES), and continuous optimization (NOTEARS), by encoding knowledge graph constraints algorithmically and leveraging LLM conceptual reasoning for hypothesis generation. Evaluated on a synthetic financial dataset of 500 firms across 18 variables, our KG+LLM-enhanced methods demonstrate consistent improvements across all three algorithms: PC (F1: 0.622 vs. 0.459 baseline, +36%), GES (F1: 0.735 vs. 0.367, +100%), and NOTEARS (F1: 0.759 vs. 0.163, +366%). The framework enables reliable scenario analysis with mean absolute error of 0.003610 for counterfactual predictions and perfect directional accuracy for intervention effects. It also addresses critical limitations of existing methods by grounding statistical discoveries in financial domain expertise while maintaining empirical validation, providing portfolio managers with the causal foundation necessary for proactive risk management and strategic decision-making in dynamic market environments.
