A Global Guide for Professionalisation in Public Sector Finance

The drive to implement public financial management (PFM) reforms requires skilled, competent and capable professionals, whoare as critical to strong PFM as effective structures, systems and processes. Professionalisation of the workforce is one of the most important aspects of the PFM journey, but less often addressed.

The guide sets out the benefits of professionalisation and offers a high-level roadmap and examples to support global good practice.
