Study Group XII “Public Sector Financial Management”
The overall objective of the Study Group XII “Public Sector Financial Management” within the EGPA is is to provide a forum for scholars and practitioners to present, discuss and debate their research, findings and ideas about innovative approaches and tools in Public Financial Management (PFM), as well as to highlight and compare experiences of mature systems or systems that are still under trial in European and non-European countries. The Study Group convenes twice a year to create a network of close collaboration among its participants. These assemblies present the opportunity for participants to highlight and compare experiences of innovations in PFM in order to define both theoretical structures and practical implementations dealing with accounting and financial systems in public sector organisations.
The co-chairs of the Study Group are engaged in several activities and initiatives including:
Administrate PSAAR - Public Sector Accounting Abstracts Repository
Are the co-editors of the Palgrave Books Series - Public Sector Financial Management
