Originally conceived as an exploratory effort, FNP has since developed into a mature and influential series of workshops and shared tasks that shape the design of automated and computer-aided methods for extracting, summarising, and analysing both qualitative and quantitative financial data.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"474\" data-end=\"1149\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong>The 7th edition of FNP (2026)<\/strong> marks the eleventh international Financial NLP event organised under the FNP initiative and the seventh dedicated FNP workshop, highlighting the sustained expansion of the field. Over the past decade, research in Accounting and Finance has moved beyond largely manual and small-scale analyses towards sophisticated approaches driven by Natural Language Processing and Machine Learning. Throughout this period, FNP has played a central role by organising a sequence of major international events, introducing widely adopted shared tasks, and releasing datasets and methodologies that have become foundational resources for the research community.<\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #444444;font-size: 1.75em;font-weight: bold;font-family: georgia, palatino\">Previous Events<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\">Since 2018, we have organised ten Financial NLP\u2013related events, summarised below.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/fnp2018\">1st FNP<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 LREC, 2018, Japan \u2013 Papers: 11 | Participants: 20<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/tamaf2018\/\">TAMAF-1<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Lancaster University, 2018, UK | Participants: 40<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/tamaf2019\/\">TAMAF-2<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Lancaster University, 2019, UK | Participants: 40<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/fnp2019\">2nd FNP<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 NoDaLiDa, 2019, Finland \u2013 Papers: 11 | Participants: 25<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/multiling.iit.demokritos.gr\/\">FNS<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 RANLP, 2019, Bulgaria\u00a0 | Participants: 20<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/fnp2020\">FNP\u2013FNS<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 COLING, 2020, Spain \u2013 Papers: 37 | Participants: 30<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/fnp2021\">3rd FNP<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 Online, 2021, UK \u2013 Papers: 22 | Participants: 120<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/fnp2022\/\">4th FNP<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 LREC, 2022, France \u2013 Papers: 25 | Participants: 50<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/fnp2023\/\">5th FNP<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 IEEE Big Data, 2023, Italy \u2013 Papers: 20 | Participants: 20<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/wp.lancs.ac.uk\/cfie\/fnp2025\/\">6th FNP<\/a><\/strong> \u2013 COLING, 2024\u201325, UAE \u2013 Papers: 49 | Participants: 65<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 data-start=\"2202\" data-end=\"2229\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino;color: #339966\">Shared Task at FNP 2026<\/span><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2400\" data-end=\"2457\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong data-start=\"2404\" data-end=\"2457\">\ud83e\ude99<\/strong><\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lllf.uam.es\/wordpress\/fincausal-26\/\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino\"><strong data-start=\"2404\" data-end=\"2457\">Financial Causality Detection (FinCausal 2026)<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2400\" data-end=\"2457\">\ud83d\udce2<strong><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Registration is now open:<\/span><\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/leptis.lllf.uam.es\/fincausal2026\/\">https:\/\/leptis.lllf.uam.es\/fincausal2026\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2400\" data-end=\"2457\"><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino\">Our longest-running shared task, now in its sixth year.<\/span><br data-start=\"2513\" data-end=\"2516\" \/><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino\">New in 2026:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"2532\" data-end=\"2566\">In FinCausal 2026, we have introduced more features and\u00a0<strong>innovations<\/strong>:\n<ul>\n<li>Complete review of the previous datasets, removing ambiguous or very simple cases.
