The concept and characteristics of financial law
In the system of Kazakhstan law as one of its integrated industries included financial law. The relationship between financial law and Finance is obvious; therefore, the study of financial law traditionally begins with consideration of the concepts of Finance, financial systems and financial activities of the state.
Finances represent economic category, the essence of which, patterns of development, the scope covered by the commodity-money relations and role in the process of social reproduction are determined by the economic structure of society, nature and functions of the state.
The state needs funds to implement its goals and tasks set by society. The emergence of financial relations, as well as their death, is not the result of arbitrary state action, it will. Finance is objectively necessary, as driven by the needs of social development.
Finance — is the economic relations connected with formation, distribution and use of centralized and decentralized funds of funds in order to fulfill the functions and tasks of the state.
Finance is not the equivalent of money, and have a specific and public purpose, which is expressed in their functions – distribution and control.
The distribution function of Finance is that through the distribution and redistribution of newly created value is provided by the national needs, formed the sources of financing the public sector of the economy, achieving a balance of budgets and extra-budgetary funds in the framework of a unified budget system of the RK. Beginnings of financial law are Constitution and Financial law (codecs) According to the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan:

The control function of monetary authorities is evident in the tracking of real money in circulation, which is the state, the distribution of the gross domestic product during the formation of the relevant funds of funds and spending them for their intended purpose. The control function of Finance always has a specific form of manifestation. It can be aimed at a certain budget level, budget Fund, the enterprise or institution, etc.
In general, the socio-economic essence of financial relations is to define sources of formation of funds of funds of the state and municipal formations and directions of spending of these funds, that is, in the question — by whom the state receives the financial resources and in whose interests will use these funds.
Finance have their own structure, which consists of several interrelated parts, each of which represents a certain sphere of financial relations (Finance Institute) and has its own specifics. Different financial institutions constitute the financial system of the country.
In other words, the financial system is a system of forms and methods of formation, distribution and use of funds of funds of the state and municipalities.
Both the legal and the economic literature there are different opinions about the content of the financial system. The most common is the approach that the financial system of Kazakhstan included: budgetary system, including state and local budgets, as well as government (national and local), extra budgetary funds, funds of property and personal insurance; credit (government and Bank); financial institutions of various forms of ownership, sectors of the economy.
The use of government Finance occurs through the exercise of specific (financial) activities. Financial activities are the process of formation, distribution and use of financial resources by the state through its cash funds in order to fulfill their tasks and perform their functions.
It is more correct to consider the financial activities of the state as a special kind of state activities, including legislative activities of the representative bodies of the state in Finance (the adoption of laws on financial matters establishment and introduction of, for example, taxes and fees, approval of budgets) and management activities of the Executive authorities, through which implemented the regulatory legal acts in the sphere of financial relations.

Financial law — public branch of law, which is a set of legal norms regulating social relations that arise and are realized in the course of the financial activities of the state.
Financial law has its own subject and method of legal regulation, which allows distinguishing it from other branches of the Kazakhstan right.
The subject of financial law are social relations arising in the process of formation, distribution and use of funds of funds of state and municipal entities needed to perform their functions and tasks.
These relations have certain features that arise in the process of financial activities of the state and local authorities; constitute a species of property, as there are about money; one of the parties always was a state or local authority, vested with governmental authority.
The primary method of financial law is imperative, or method of government regulations. The use of this method for the regulation of financial relations does not require between their subjects obedience “vertical”. Most often this method is used by bodies specifically created for the implementation of financial activities — financial-credit bodies, which other participants of the financial relations under – canine only in the sphere of financial activities.
Based on the structure of financial law as a branch are financial and legal norms. Financial and legal norm can be defined as specified by the competent authority, the rule of conduct in public relations arising in the course of the financial activities of the state and municipalities, which enshrines the legal rights and duties of their members, and provided measures of state coercion.

As for financial penalties, they include a fine, forced the withdrawal of budgetary funds, stay of operations under accounts in banks, a ban the Bank from carrying out certain banking operations, etc. Feature in this case is that measures of force were economic (monetary) in nature, as they are focused on money (funds) of the offender.
Under the sources of financial law refers to legal acts containing norms of financial law, published by the representative and Executive bodies of state power.
Feature of financial law is the absence of any single source for this branch of the law as a whole, for example, of the code. However, there are a number of legislative acts that regulate the financial relationship.

The subjects of financial law can be divided into the following groups:
– Public-territorial entity (these include the Republic of Kazakhstan, the administrative-territorial units);
