Republic of Italy
The abolition of the monarchy did not lead to a historical break in the ministries, only the attribute “royal” was dropped. In addition to the Ministry of Finance, which is responsible for tax revenue, the Ministry of Treasury, which is responsible for property and debt matters, was retained. In 1948, a budget ministry was also outsourced, which was responsible for government spending. In 1957 a ministry for state holdings was added to oversee the state-owned companies at the time.
The Ministry of State Holdings was taken over by the Ministry of Budget in 1993, the Ministry of Budget was taken over by the Ministry of Treasury in 1996 and the Ministry of the Treasury and other entities merged with the Ministry of Finance in 2001, creating the current Ministry of Economy and Finance . The latter is essentially the Ministry of Finance of Italy. The Ministry of Economic Development is primarily responsible for economic policy.
