Philippines: Report on the Observance of Standards and Codes—Fiscal Transparency Module

International Monetary Fund

No 2002/216, IMF Staff Country Reports from International Monetary Fund

Abstract: This report provides an assessment of the Observance of Standards and Codes on Fiscal Transparency Module for the Philippines. The Philippines meets the requirements of fiscal transparency in many important respects. Despite broad adherence to the transparency code, there are some key areas that require strengthening. Although the existing responsibilities, procedures, and reporting arrangements are well defined, more efforts are required to enforce them, to clearly define accountabilities, and to take firm and demonstrable corrective action when they are not met.
