Ministry of Finance of Russian Federation, Federal finance ministry in Moscow, Russia.
The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation is a federal agency in Moscow responsible for budget management and economic planning. Its headquarters stands in a multistory administrative building at Ilinka Street 9, within the historic commercial district near Red Square.
After the Soviet Union dissolved, the ministry was founded on February 19, 1992, taking over responsibilities from the former Soviet finance authority. Since then it has coordinated economic policy for the new Russian state.
The Ministry maintains a collection of financial documents and records dating back to the Russian Empire, representing centuries of economic development.
Visitors can find information on regulations and financial reports at the ministry website minfin.ru. The building itself serves as an administrative center and is not open to tourists.
In 2014 the ministry developed its own payment system to maintain financial transactions even under external restrictions. This infrastructure operates parallel to international networks.
