【 摘 要 】

The purpose of this Country IntegratedFiduciary Assessment (CIFA) is: (i) to assess the quality ofpublic finance management and procurement systems in SouthSudan; and (ii) to then determine the extent of fiduciaryrisk posed to domestic and external tax payers by thegovernment's use of their funds through these systems.South Sudan has great potential for further increases inliving standards, but achieving them will require largeimprovements in public services, both in access and inquality. In turn, Public Finance Management (PFM) andprocurement systems need to be strengthened in order toimprove public services; this will require linking spendingmore tightly to policy objectives and strengthening theoperational efficiency of expenditures. In sum, strengthenedPFM and procurement systems are not an end in themselvesbut, rather, the necessary means to achieving the ultimateobjective: improved service delivery in South Sudan. ThisCIFA will be used by the Government of the Republic of SouthSudan (GRSS) and by the country state governments to informtheir design or reforms of PFM and procurement systems and,in the case of development partners, to inform their designor revision of technical and financial assistance programsand projects in support of the reforms.
