C(iv) External Scrutiny and Audit

Latest from FreeBalance Customers Prior to Using FreeBalance

PEFA scores
1)Governments that were using FreeBalance software [in green] have above average accounting, recording and reporting when compared to the latest public PEFA scores, recognizing that many countries with unfavourable assessments have not made assessments public. This average is also higher than the average calculated by the Oversees Development Institute in 2008 that included unpublished assessments 2)This reporting, enabled by FreeBalance software also has helped improve external scrutiny

3)There are 3 areas that need improved controls and process to enable our customers to exceed the average
4)Policy-based budgeting seem to be below average as well, although the prior to using FreeBalance software, is close to the current average.

In Context
Public PEFA FreeBalance Customers Average PEFA Score 2.47 2.35 Average HDI Nearest HDI HDI Category Low HDI Nearest PEFA Indonesia 0.482 Cameroon 0.569 Cape Verde

*Countries do not use FreeBalance

Medium HDI Ghana

*Latest PEFA from countries, only national governments, not including countries that acquired FreeBalance after the last assessment. Shows that average (using ODI method) FreeBalance assessment greater than average even with low HDI averages Cameroon while the rest averages as Cape Verde. The closest PEFA average to 2.47 is Indonesia, closest to 2.35 in Ghana
