The position serves as the head of the country's Ministry of Finance. The current incumbent is K. Peter Turnquest of the Free National Movement, who also serves as the Deputy Prime Minister. As in other Commonwealth realms using the Westminster model of government, the Finance Minister must be a constituent individual of the Parliament of the Bahamas. However unlike other such countries, for example the United Kingdom and Australia, where the equivalent positions (Chancellor of the Exchequer and Treasurer of Australia respectively) by convention must be members of the lower house, the Constitution of the Bahamas states that the Minister of Finance can be appointed from either the House of Assembly or the Senate. Along with other cabinet ministers the Finance Minister is accountable to Parliament. The minister runs the department and sets economic and fiscal policy. Because of the importance of the portfolio, the position is considered the second most powerful in the Cabinet, as is common for finance ministers across the Commonwealth.
