Explanation:
Titula osobe koja se brine o privatnim novčanim sredstvima britanske kraljice.

"Keeper of the Privy Purse looks after the Sovereign's personal financial affairs. His title is derived from the Privy Purse—an embroidered bag borne by the Keeper at a coronation—which contrasts with his Department's present-day use of computers and up-to-date accounting procedures. He manages the revenues which come from the Duchy of Lancaster. The Privy Purse meets both official expenditure incurred by The Queen as Sovereign and private expenditure. In recent years the office of Keeper has been held jointly with that of Treasurer to the Queen, who is responsible for the use of the Civil List, money paid from public funds to meet official expenditure relating to the Queen's duties as Head of State. He also oversees the grant-in-aid from the Royal Household for the maintenance of the occupied Royal Palaces and for Royal travel."
