Data state facts, but provide little to no knowledge regarding how these facts materialised. The Financial Document Causality Detection Task aims to develop an ability to explain, from external sources, the reasons why a transformation occurs in the financial landscape, as a preamble to generating accurate and meaningful financial narrative summaries. Its goal is to evaluate which events or which chain of events can cause a financial object to be modified or an event to occur, regarding a given external context. This context is available in the financial news, but due to the high volatility of such information, mapping an external cause to a given consequence is not trivial.<\/p>\n<p>The task dataset has been extracted from different 2019 financial news kindly provided by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.qwamci.com\/\">Qwam<\/a>, and additional SEC data from the Edgar Database, and has been normalised for the research task.<\/p>\n<p>Participants will be asked to evaluate whether a sentence is causal or not (Task 1), then to detect, in causal sentences, which elements of the sentence relate to the cause and which relate to the effect (Task 2).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1LUTJVj9ItJMZzKvy1LrCTuBK2SITzr1z\/view?usp=sharing\">This paper<\/a> details the data processing and the labelling scheme, the expected results and the metrics used for evaluation.

An event is defined as the arising or emergence of a new object or context in regard of a previous situation. So the task will emphasise the detection of causality associated to transformation of financial objects embedded in quantified facts.<\/p>\n<p>Participants will be provided with a sample of text blocks extracted from financial news and SEC data, labelled through inter annotator agreement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">The Shared Task contains two sub-tasks:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff6600;font-size: 12pt\"><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff\">Task 1:<\/span> Sentence Classification<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This task is a binary classification task.
