I hope this email finds you well. We are excited to announce a thrilling opportunity for all machine learning and finance enthusiasts at the SecureFinAI Contest 2025 @ ACM ICAIF 2025!

As AI continues to advance at a fast pace, more FinAI agents are being developed for the finance sector, such as FinRL trading agents, FinGPT agents with multimodal capabilities, and regulatory reporting agents. The SecureFinAI Contest 2025 encourages the development of open FinAgents based on the frameworks FinRL and FinGPT.

Task 1: FinRL-Transformer for Cryptocurrency Trading Agents – Develop crypto trading agents by integrating transformer-based architectures and LLM-generated signals in FinRL.
Task 2: FinGPT-Powered Compliance Agents – Fine-tune LLMs and develop financial agents for financial analytics to handle a range of subtasks, including analyzing SEC filings, financial data retrieval, sentiment analysis, antitrust and copyright reasoning, patent and IP protection, and financial audio transcription.

Dear AI4Finance / FinRL Team,

I attended the SecureFinAI Contest 2025 and found it extremely valuable. I would love to join again in 2026.

Is a SecureFinAI Contest planned for 2026?

Also, are there any upcoming FinAI / FinRL / AI4Finance events, competitions, workshops, or research challenges where participants can further improve their skills and contribute to the community?

Thank you for your work and for building such a strong FinAI ecosystem.

Best regards,

Alexei
