NDFI is independent of the government's budget.〔http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-8MD_35mcY〕 Based on Article 84 of the Fifth Five-year Socio-Economic Development Plan (2010–2015), the National Development Fund was established to transform oil and gas revenues to productive investment for future generation.〔(Iran central bank )〕 Accordingly, 20% of oil income is to be transferred to the National Development Fund and this percentage increase 3% annually until the end of Fifth Five-year Socio-Economic Development Plan.
