Direction générale du Trésor

(Redirected from Draft:Direction générale du Trésor)

The Direction générale du Trésor (DG Trésor, English: Directorate General of the Treasury, or French Treasury) is the flagship Directorate General of the French Ministry of the Economy and Finance. It holds an advisory role within the French Government on matters ranging from domestic to international economic policy.[1][2][3][4][5] Its main offices are located in Paris, in the building of Bercy. The DG Trésor also represents and defends French economic interests abroad by overseeing the economic departments of embassies (French : service économique), and by providing permanent representations at international organizations (IMF, World Bank Group, OECD, WTO, G20, G7, specific comities of the European Commission, etc.).[6]

The Direction générale du Trésor should not be confused with the Trésor public, a national administration responsible for France's governmental accounting.
