Finance Text Classification Dataset

A lightweight English-language dataset designed for text classification tasks in the finance domain.
It contains 1,000 synthetic but realistic loan application texts with requested amounts up to €50,000.

The dataset is suitable for:

  • Binary text classification (approved vs. rejected)
  • Zero-shot classification experiments
  • Fine-tuning or evaluating language models on financial application texts

Dataset Description

Each example represents a short free-text loan/credit application.
The texts cover common real-world use cases such as:

  • Home improvement
  • Vehicle purchase
  • Debt consolidation
  • Education / training
  • Medical / health expenses
  • Business / self-employment needs
  • Wedding & family events
  • Travel
  • Electronics & furniture
  • Emergency / unexpected costs

Mild realistic correlations between requested amount, purpose, and approval probability were introduced while retaining sufficient noise for meaningful model training.
