Finance and financial system
Finance is the provision of money at the time when it is needed. It is a system of monetary relations leading to formation, distribution and use of money in the process of its turnover between economic entities.
The financial system is the network of institutions through which firms, households and units of government get the funds they need and put surplus funds to work.
Savers and borrowers are connected by financial intermediaries including banks, thrift institutions, insurance companies, pension funds, mutual funds, and finance companies.
Finance in an economic system comprises two parts: public finance and finance of economic entities.
Public finance is the provision of money (by the community through taxes) to be spent by national and local government authorities on1 projects of national and local benefit. It is a collective term for the financial flows and also the financial institutions of the public sector.
Public finance has the following four functions:
the provision of essential services;
the encouragement or control of particular sectors of the economy;
the implementation of social policy in respect of social services;
the encouragement of the growth of the economy as a whole.
The major instrument of any financial system is the budget. In a market-oriented economy, the budget is the most important tool for achieving national priority and goals through the allocation and distribution of resources, and the maintenance of stable macroeconomic environment.
The budget is an estimate of national revenue and expenditure for the ensuing fiscal year. When expenditure exceeds the revenue the budget has a deficit.
Revenue and expenditure forecasting is the most fundamental step in the process of budget preparation. Adequate planning of recurrent and capital expenditure depends critically on an accurate forecast of revenue availability. The determination of the expected overall deficit in the public sector and therefore the macroeconomic impact of fiscal policy requires accurate forecast of tax collection and expenditures.
In Ukraine, public finance is a sum of the budgets of all levels of subjects of the state, extrabudgetary and reserve funds.
An accurate revenue forecast is most critical at the national level of government but it is also important for all level governments because over the last several years they have worked with increasingly autonomous budgets.
Budget preparation at the national level involves a number of institutions. The Ministry of Finance (MoF) is the central coordinating institution in charge of compiling and presenting the budget. It has major inputs from2 ministries in various sectors of the economy and the state tax bodies.
