Divisions

Learn how our core divisions work together to manage public resources and support national development.

The Department of Finance and Administration (DoFA) is organized into specialized divisions that work together to safeguard the nation’s resources, strengthen financial management, and support sustainable development. Each division plays a distinct role — from preparing the national budget and managing revenues, to protecting FSM’s borders and ensuring accountability in financial reporting. By coordinating their efforts, these divisions help ensure that public funds are managed responsibly and transparently, delivering maximum benefits to citizens across all four states.
