**FinancialBERT** is a BERT model pre-trained on a large corpora of financial texts. The purpose is to enhance financial NLP research and practice in financial domain, we hope financial practitioners and researchers can benefit from our model without the necessity of the significant computational resources required to train the model. 

We fine-tuned our model on Sentiment Analysis task using _FinancialPhraseBank_ dataset, experiments show that our model outperforms the general BERT and other financial domain-specific models.
 
 # How to use 
Our model can be used thanks to Transformers pipeline for sentiment analysis.
```python
from transformers import BertTokenizer, BertForSequenceClassification
from transformers import pipeline

finbert = BertForSequenceClassification.from_pretrained("ahmedrachid/FinancialBERT-Sentiment-Analysis",num_labels=3)
tokenizer = BertTokenizer.from_pretrained("ahmedrachid/FinancialBERT-Sentiment-Analysis")

nlp = pipeline("sentiment-analysis", model=finbert, tokenizer=tokenizer)

sentences = ["Operating profit rose to EUR 13.1 mn from EUR 8.7 mn in the corresponding period in 2007 representing 7.7 % of net sales.",  
             "Bids or offers include at least 1,000 shares and the value of the shares must correspond to at least EUR 4,000.", 
             "Raute reported a loss per share of EUR 0.86 for the first half of 2009 , against EPS of EUR 0.74 in the corresponding period of 2008.", 
             ]
results = nlp(sentences)
print(results)
