Public finance management

Overview

Public finance management (PFM) services optimises systems, processes and practices. We propose budget responses most adapted to local contexts, considering an evolving geopolitical landscape, a limping global economy and rising risks.

Underpinned by the “Collect more – Spend better” approach, our interventions involve generating evidence by tagging and tracking, streamlining mechanisms and introducing new forms of budgeting, fostering transparency and accountability, building capacity, transferring skills and building coalitions.
