Session 3: Accountability and Transparency in Financial Management
In this session, the link between a lack of accountability and transparency and corruption
will be discussed. The concepts of accountability (the need to justify the use of resources
for desired results) and transparency (making information pertaining to decision-making
and operations publicly available) will be explored in the context of developing countries.
Their implications for public financial management - including regulating the banking
sector, privatizations, contracting and concession granting, etc. - will be introduced.
Further, in view of globalization and international competition, the move to establish "a
level playing field" in north/south trade through criminalizing bribery of foreign public
officials will be examined.

activities. Policy options aimed at increasing accountability and transparency in public
financial management will look at the role of supreme audit institutions, financial
regulations in revenue collection and procurement, and general measures to promote
professionalism and integrity among public officials. At the international level, the role of
