The Ministry of Finance of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (russian: Министерство финансов РСФСР), known prior to 1946 as the People's Commissariat for Finance (russian: Народный комиссариат финансов), or shortened to Narkomfin, was part of the government of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic from 1918 until the fall of the USSR in 1991. It was subordinate to the Ministry of Finance of the USSR. History The Narkomfin commissar was part of Sovnarkom. Nikolai Krestinsky was the first commissar, appointed in 1918.
