The Secretariat of the Treasury and Public Credit (Spanish; Castilian: Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público, SHCP) is the finance ministry of Mexico. The Secretary of the Treasury is the head of the department, and is a member of the federal executive cabinet, appointed to the post by the President of the Republic, with the approval of the Chamber of Deputies. Recently, the institution has been promoting a financial inclusion policy and is now a member of the Alliance for Financial Inclusion.
