RG-T3646 : Strengthening Corporate Governance of Supreme Audit Institutions in Caribbean Countries

The objective of this technical cooperation (TC) is to strengthen the institutional capacity of Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) within the Caribbean to manage increased demands for oversight of government discretionary spending in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic. By facilitating greater adherence to international standards in the areas of investigative audits and self-regulation for SAIs, this TC will provide SAIs with the necessary tools to give greater scrutiny on transactions within the public finance system while exhibiting greater degrees of institutional autonomy that auger well for state legitimacy both locally and internationally. The specific objectives are to: (i) enhance the suite of audit services provided by supreme audit institutions; and (ii) develop institutional capacity in the management of human resources.
