Caja de Real Hacienda

[diimahern]

Hello,

I'm translating a historical document on Spanish colonization of the Americas. The sentence reads: se estableció en México la Caja de Real Hacienda para una mejor administración y supervisión de las actividades económicas.

How would I translate "la Caja de Real Hacienda" ? The royal Spanish treasury? or "a branch of the royal Spanish treasury?

Any help would be appreciated.

Should it be translated? I ask because I don't think there's an equivalent elsewhere. If you aren't familiar with the concept of caja real, take a look: Caja real - Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre.
