Managerial Accountability for Performance Budgeting
About this learning event
The key element of performance budgeting (PB) is a program structure that also includes a connection to the program manager. At this event, we will explore how the implementation of PB can be made more effective and efficient when managerial accountability is clearly defined. We will discuss how a central harmonization unit and a budget department of a ministry of finance can strengthen their cooperation and information exchange. We will address practical issues related to improving the efficiency of financial management control, measuring the results, reporting on program implementation, and accountability arrangements between ministries and their subordinated entities. Participants will also benefit from the exchange of knowledge acquired by countries that have advanced experiences in this field, as well as those that are in the initial stages of adopting PB.
Target audience
Public sector officials working in central harmonization units and budget departments of ministries of finance and officials from finance departments at line ministries
