Open questions & calls
Fide has not conducted finance-domain studies. FID-082 proposes research on financial agent authorization and transaction integrity. We are seeking financial workflow expertise and controlled settings for a first investigation.
Do financial-workflow agents preserve authorization, transaction integrity, and recoverability when instructions, records, or operational conditions conflict?
