Historia biográfica
An Executive Committee was established as a standing committee of the RCOG in 1926. By June 1930 it had combined with another standing committee, the Finance and Establishment Committee, to form the Finance and Executive Committee (F & E). The office of Honorary Treasurer was created by Council under the 1929 bye-laws of the College (ref: A1/9/1 p. 48), which state that the Honorary Treasurer's duties were to be as follows:- to pay all monies received by him on behalf of the College into a College account; to keep accounts of all monies received and expended and report monthly to the Finance and Executive Committee; to prepare quarterly reports to Council; to maintain an Income and Expenditure account and balance sheet. At an Executive Committee meeting in October 1929 it was decided that the Treasurer be given authority to arrange with the Auditors for one of their clerks to keep the necessary financial books of the College for £50 per annum. The President and Honorary secretary were also authorised to obtain any clerical assistance found necessary (Executive Committee meeting B1, 10 Oct 1929; Archives reference: A3M/1 p. 2). From this beginning the Accounts Department, renamed the Finance Department in 1999, developed. The Department, now headed by a Chief Accountant, offers financial support for the activities of the Honorary Treasurer and is responsible for the following functions:- banking all income which includes subscriptions, examination and course fees and sales from publications; paying all the College's purchase invoices; co-ordinating the budgeting process; preparing the annual statutory accounts.

Historia archivística
The early imposition of a subject classification scheme for financial records has meant that provenance cannot not always be established. The records in these series appear to have been transferred to the College Archives from a variety of College departments, including the College Secretary's Office, the Honorary Treasurer and the Finance Department and its predecessors. Honorary Treasurer's files in particular, prior to the creation of a discrete file system for this officer's files in c.1970, will be found mixed with records of the Finance Department.

Earlier records appear to have been retained without much attempt to weed or appraise for permanent value. Others have been retained as samples of records destroyed. Since the mid-1990s the practice has been for accounting records to be transferred to the Archives in January each year and destroyed after 6 years in accordance with Finance Regulations. In 1999 an agreement (Disposal Agreement no 27) was made between the Chief Accountant and the Archivist to deal with records not covered by the regulations (e.g. correspondence files).
