Summary: | The Report on the Observance of
Standards and Codes - Accounting and Auditing (ROSC A&A)
program is part of a 12-module joint World Bank-IMF
initiative to assist member countries to strengthen their
financial systems by improving their capacity to comply with
internationally recognized standards and codes. The program
focuses on the institutional framework underpinning national
accounting and auditing practices, and degree of conformity
with international standards and good practices. The initial
ROSC A&A for Rwanda was carried out in 2008 and provided
a key input in designing necessary financial reporting
reforms in the country. The 2015 update is a valuable tool
for monitoring the effectiveness of the reform program. It
assesses the degree to which the recommendations of the 2008
ROSC A&A review have been implemented, identifies issues
that have emerged since the last review, and proposes a
number of recommendations aimed at further strengthening the
quality of corporate financial reporting and auditing which
contributes to improving business climate, investors’
confidence and economic growth potential of Rwanda. |
