Records of the Budapest District of the Royal Hungarian Financial Directorate, 1863-1944
Replacing financial districts of the Habsburg-era administration operating directly under the imperial Ministry of Finances, the modern-era financial directorates in Hungary were established by Act XXVIII of 1889 (modified by Act XI of 1909 and Act IV of 1924). Headed by a financial director appointed by the head of state, financial directorates operated in the seats of counties and were subordinated to the Ministry of Finances. It was the main supervisory authority in financial and taxation matters of state and municipal authorities. The sphere of authority of the Budapest District Financial Directorate was the entire territory of Pest-Pilis-Solt-Kiskun County. However, in 1927 and 1940 independent financial districts were formed in Kecskemét and in Esztergom. In 1950, the Budapest District Financial Directorate was dissolved and replaced by the Financial Department of the Pest County Council.
