| dc.description.abstract | The study aimed to assess the perception as to whether IPSAS is effective in promoting financial accountability in a local government authority following their implementation. A quantitative approach and descriptive research design was used for this study using structured questionnaires for data collection. The study finds evidence to support that implementation of IPSAS positively correlates with enhancing accountability in financial reporting for a local government authority. Further, the study recommends effective strategies that could be used by policymakers, senior central and local government management to enhance the effectiveness of IPSAS in promoting accountability in financial reporting, such as stakeholder’s engagement, external support needed, and transformation in structure and law necessary for successful implementation of IPSAS in a local government set up. | |
