At the Nova Scotia Department of Finance, our vision is to provide financial leadership that strengthens Nova Scotia; and our mission is to provide corporate financial services and manage the province’s financial affairs and policies in the interests of Nova Scotians.
Our staff look for new and better ways to plan, budget and invest for the province. We provide Nova Scotians with a yearly budget, regular fiscal updates, and revenue and economic forecasting and analysis. We also administer provincial tax and rebate programs, investments, pension plans and regulate insurance and financial institutions.
We provide a wide range of services to ensure Nova Scotia maintains its strong financial position.
