Descriptiontext

The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation (Министерство финансов Российской Федерации, also known as Minfin Rossii) is the federal executive body of the Russian Government responsible for developing and implementing state fiscal policy, regulating financial markets, managing state debt, and overseeing federal budget execution. Established following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s, it operates under the Government of the Russian Federation and is headquartered at 109097, Moscow, Ilyinka Street, Building 9. The Ministry exercises exclusive constitutional authority over federal budget formulation and execution, state domestic and external debt issuance (including OFZ federal loan bonds), and the National Wealth Fund (ФНБ). It manages federal budget execution through subordinate agencies including the Federal Treasury (Roskazna), the Federal Tax Service, the Federal Customs Service, the Federal Service for Control over Alcohol and Tobacco Markets, the Federal Assay Chamber, and the Federal Agency for State Property Management (ROSIM). Core products and services include a Federal Budget Execution Portal providing real-time budget data, an Open Data Portal with machine-readable financial datasets, a Statistics Dashboard, a Financial Literacy Portal (моифинансы.рф), a State Support Measures Portal (promote.budget.gov.ru), an appeals system, and a Federal Budget mobile application. The Ministry also issues government securities information and manages state reserves of precious metals and gemstones (Gosfond Rossii), and operates the annual Moscow Financial Forum.

The Ministry operates a non-commercial revenue model: it is funded through the federal budget and does not sell products or services commercially. Its primary "customer" relationships are with the Russian federal government itself (for budget execution), regional and municipal governments (for consolidated budget support and fiscal equalization), and Russian citizens (for financial literacy and social savings programs). Distribution occurs through the Gosuslugi state services portal, the Federal Treasury network, and its network of subordinate federal services. Key strategic relationships include coordination of the BRICS finance track since at least 2024, joint operations with the Bank of Russia on National Wealth Fund management and foreign currency/gold market operations, and ongoing federal budget execution against a 2026 plan of 20,950 billion rubles in revenues and 27,007.1 billion rubles in expenditures. The Ministry serves as a coordinating body for both domestic financial policy and Russia's multilateral financial diplomacy.
