After the reunification of Germany he moved to Saxony-Anhalt where he became the first Financial Minister of this state since refounding of same after the reunification under the first Minister-President Gerd Gies. After Gies had to resign already in 1991 Münch was elected as second Minister-President of Saxony-Anhalt from 4 July 1991 to 28 November 1993,[1] when he resigned after criticism over alleged overpayments. He was succeeded by Christoph Bergner.
