This task aims to demonstrate the value and challenges of applying summarization to financial text, usually referred to as financial narrative disclosures. The participants will be asked to provide structured summaries, based on real-world, publicly available financial annual reports by extracting information from different key sections. Generated summaries should reflect the analysis and assessment of the financial trend of the business over the past year, as provided by annual reports.

The manual evaluation will be conducted by experts. Automatic evaluation will be carried through established summary evaluation measures,  using as gold-standard models executive summaries provided by humans.
