| Summary: | This Public Expenditure and Financial
Accountability (PEFA) Assessment applies the PEFA framework
and methodology to provide a snapshot of the current status
of the federal government's public financial management
(PFM) system. The report makes no recommendations on policy
matters it is specifically concerned with the status of the
PFM system and issues relating to financial management
processes. It does suggest weaknesses and strengths as well
as possible priority areas to take advantage of strengths or
to address higher-risk weaknesses. It makes no
recommendations, however, on specific measures or action
plans. The report provides a basis for these matters to be
taken up subsequently, but, consistently with the PEFA
framework, they should be subject to a separate discussion
during the formulation of a government-led PFM reform
agenda. The structure of the PFM performance report is as
follows: chapter two gives background information and the
country economic, fiscal, and institutional context. Chapter
three provides details on each performance indicator (PI)
score. Chapter four summarizes the government's ongoing
PFM reform programs. Annex one gives a summary of the PEFA
assessment; annex two provides sources of information,
including a list of documents reviewed and officials
consulted; and annex three shows key organizational elements
of Pakistan's PFM structure. |
