    with Aktors

    The main objective of the Budget Management System (BMS) is to administer and supervise the government and public-sector spending. BMS is a small banking system where the government and public-sector institutions act as customers. Accounts of government institutions are virtual accounts (e-accounts) inside the BMS system, real bank accounts where the real money is deposited are owned and handled only by the Ministry of Finance. This setup guarantees a central point of control and reporting of the whole public-sector spending and reduced costs of bank transactions.

    • simple and convenient public services: we will offer all taxpayers streamlined means to perform their obligations. Services provided by the ETCB motivate people to comply with their tax and customs obligations in a correct manner.
