Overview
The dataset contains stock tickers and acronyms for regulatory terms. It is developed for the abbreviation recognition task at Regulations Challenge @ COLING 2025. This dataset is designed to evaluate and benchmark the performance of LLMs in understanding and generating expansions for abbreviations within the context of regulatory and compliance documentation. It provides a collection of abbreviations commonly encountered in regulatory texts, along with their full forms.
Legal and compliance documents, such as regulatory filings, compliance reports, and business contracts, contain a lot of abbreviations of legal terms, initialisms of financial agencies, and stock symbols. Misidentification of abbreviations may lead to misidentification of financial products and liable parties, resulting in misapplication of regulations, failure in compliance, and potentially serious legal and financial consequences. This task evaluates LLMs’ ability to give the full form of the stock symbols and the abbreviations in EMIR, SEC regulations, Federal Reserve regulations, and the accounting and auditing standards.
