Contesto

SECO is a key donor in the World Banks public financial management programs and a longstanding supporter of both Public Financial Management and Corporate Financial Reform agendas in partner countries. This is reflected in this contribution proposal to the newly established Financial Management Umbrella Trust Fund (FM UTF). Its focus on sound financial management is critical to restore economic activity and growth particularly in a context of increased public and private sector debt as well as high uncertainty.
