Abstract: In this article, the author starts from the observation that public financial management, including public financial control and audit, must take into account the problems and risks inherent in the public institution model itself, but also those specific to a country and its public sector at a certain time. Applying methods such as the method of scientific abstraction, the method of induction, the method of deduction, analysis and synthesis, the author comes to the conclusion that the safest public sectors, implicitly public institutions, are those from countries with developed democracies, namely - Denmark, Finland and Norway, followed by those from Germany and Canada. The following, according to the level of risks, are some post-socialist countries: Estonia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland. Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria represent countries with public sectors facing high risks related to corruption and government effectiveness. Armenia and the Republic of Moldova face high risks at the level of the sector and public institutions. This finding suggests the conclusion about the lack of efficiency and effectiveness of the internal and external public financial audit activity.
