The Data Gap in Frontier Markets

Large language models (LLMs) such as GPT-3 have gained significant attention due to their ability to generate human-like text and perform various natural language processing tasks. However, these models tend to focus on developed conventional economies and exhibit a bias towards well-represented languages and regions. As a result, they often lack financial insights in the context of the unique financial dynamics of frontier markets and have limited financial language capabilities in native frontier market languages when generating finance content.

About Quantitative Language Models


To address these gaps, FinanceGPT Labs is developing a suite of quantitative language models specifically designed for the investment and finance industry. These models aim to close the gap left by large language models by offering specialized solutions for frontier markets in Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, and the Asia-Pacific.

Our three quantitative language models - FinanceGPT-SSA (Sub-Saharan Africa), FinanceGPT-MENA/FinanceGPT-Shariah (Middle East & North Africa), and FinanceGPT-APAC (Asia-Pacific) - are expertly tailored to capture the unique financial landscapes and opportunities in these fast-growing regions.

We empower financial analysts and researchers to access localized, reliable, and relevant financial data by giving access to quantitative language models through our platform.

Quantitative language models are a fusion of large language models (LLMs) and large quantitative models (LQMs) which makes complimentary to existing generative AI models, leveraging the power of the foundational models while addressing the unique financial and linguistic needs of each region. Unlike fine-tuning, these models can be used as foundational models independently of other other models, providing a robust and tailored solution for finance professionals operating in frontier markets. FinanceGPT quantitative language models empower investors, analysts, and strategists to make informed decisions and drive growth in these rapidly evolving economies by offering accurate financial insights, context-specific economic analysis, and native language capabilities.
