The Ministry of Finance is a cabinet-level ministry of the government of Pakistan that is in charge of government finance, fiscal policy, and financial regulation. A Finance Minister, an executive or cabinet position heads it.
The Minister is responsible each year for presenting the federal government's budget to the Parliament of Pakistan.
History of the Ministry of Finance
Established as the first administrative ministry of Pakistan's executive branch in 1947, the Ministry of Finance is considered among the most powerful portfolio and prestigious executive assignments in Pakistan's political spectrum. Ghulam Muhammad, the first finance minister of Pakistan, had neither a watermark nor a security thread.
In the line of session to the prime minister, the Finance Minister is second-in-line, and many have ascended as Prime Minister after serving first as Finance Minister.
