This is an independent review of the findings contained in the Baseline Report of the Independent Review of Public Financial Management (PFM) Reform in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The primary purpose of the review was to provide an independent assessment of progress on PFM reform in the DRC as well as to provide a technical and political economy perspective on PFM activities carried out by the government and its external partners in the DRC. The 2017 Baseline Report reviewed the progress of reforms since the enactment of the PFM Act (la LOFIP) enacted in 2011 and, in particular, reviewed the PFM reform actions undertaken since the inception of the Public Financial Management and Accountability (PFMA) Programme in late 2013. The Report examined progress made with key elements of PFM reform, including progress relating to budget execution at a national level, the reform of internal and external PFM controls as well as the state of play related to coordination between the Government of the DRC (GoDRC) and its external development partners.
