Abstract: This article examines whether and how the implementation of International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) affects economic policy uncertainty. The authors explore how political stability, regulatory quality, government effectiveness, and a country’s level of development moderate the relationship between IPSAS and economic policy uncertainty. Using a sample of 22 countries for the period 2014–2020, findings reveal that the implementation of IPSAS reduces economic policy uncertainty. Importantly, the authors show that the economic impacts of IPSAS are greater in countries that do not have robust mechanisms to support transparency and accountability.
