摘要

Large Language Models (LLMs) are reshaping financial analytics, enabling automated summarization, sentiment analysis, numerical reasoning, and decision support. In this survey, we provide a clear and structured overview of LLM adoption in finance. We introduce a taxonomy of key tasks, including text processing, forecasting, and question answering, and review core architectures and adaptation strategies for both general-purpose and finance-specific LLMs. We compare performance trade-offs across models, examine evaluation metrics relevant to financial applications, and discuss deployment challenges such as data privacy, bias, and explainability. Our multi-level adoption framework offers practical guidance for balancing accuracy, cost, and privacy across institutions. Finally, we outline future research opportunities, including cross-lingual modeling, symbolic reasoning, and open finance benchmarks. This survey aims to help researchers and practitioners responsibly leverage LLMs for more transparent, effective, and inclusive financial AI.
