| Summary: | The objective of this assessment is to
update the public expenditure and financial accountability
(PEFA) assessment published in early 2008. The assessment is
expected to assist the Government of Nepal to: (a) establish
indicator led assessment of the country’s public financial
management (PFM) system, (b) update the fiduciary
environment of the PFM systems and processes of the country,
and (c) assist in identifying those parts of the PFM system
that may need further reform and development. The
institutional and organizational approach taken by the
Government of Nepal ensured coordination among various
government institutions. The assessment included collection
of additional documentation, including meeting minutes, and
interviews with government counterpart teams and main
stakeholders. The report was updated and refined following
advice from a World Bank team. A specialist in the use of
PEFA methodology assisted in the later drafts and visited
Nepal in August 17-20, 2014. Meetings were held with the
PEFA Secretariat at the Financial Comptroller General Office
(FCGO) and with the Ministry of Finance (MoF) Budget
Division. This final draft of the report addresses all the
comments received up to November 31, 2014. The findings of
the assessment were shared with the donors in September 2014
and their comments assisted the finalization of the draft
report. The World Bank also provided continuous quality
control support. |
