These goals and targets were adopted by national governments but with a clear recognition that regions and municipalities would play a crucial role in implementing these goals.
The current report presents a first step to target assessment for the thirteen first-level administrative entities-regions in Greece for the SDGs. The report builds on the approach and methodology used by the SDSN (Lafortune et al., 2019; Lafortune et al., 2021). The 2019 SDG Index approach and methodology are currently being audited by the European Commission Joint Research Centre.

Undoubtedly, one of the most promising ones has been the advent of Large Language Models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT. In previous years, an increasing number of studies, attempting to investigate potential applications of LLMs in various domains, had been conducted. However, not many of those regard the implications of ChatGPT in foreign exchange trading. Thus, this thesis intends to reveal how efficiently can ChatGPT assist traders in currency markets. To that end, ChatGPT is applied and assessed in three different tasks; sentiment analysis, summarization, and question answering. As for the assets they target, all three of the tasks consider the US Dollar and its major currency pairs. In relation to the used datasets, for the tasks of sentiment analysis and summarization the data consisted of financial news articles about the assets, while for the task of question answering, carefully devised quantitative questions over the assets’ historical prices have been considered. The assessments’ results demonstrated encouraging evidence that ChatGPT is capable of performing all three of the tasks with substantial performance, hence qualifying as a potentially lucrative component of autonomous applications in the field of foreign exchange trading.
