The Economy Minister Ehsan Khandouzi said improving financial transparency and accountability is a key priority of his ministry.  
In a talk with state TV late on Sunday, Khandouzi said all state and government-controlled companies, including banks and insurance firms, should publish their financial statements to the public within a month.
“As minister, I am committed to make banks, state companies and insurance firms accountable for mismanagement.”
