Financial Reporting in the Public Sector
3 days|Delivered on request
Financial Reporting in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including treasury operations, lease accounting and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because boards increasingly expect finance to explain the business, not only report on it, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with fraud detection, capital budgeting and revenue recognition in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review fraud detection and say plainly whether it is working, measured against GRAP for public entities
- Bring capital budgeting into line with current good practice
