Abstract
Vietnam has come far in improving fiscal
transparency. Building on these gains could help strengthen
macroeconomic management, improve market perceptions of
risk, and increase accountability for service delivery.
Fiscal transparency is an important element of the
Government's policy dialogue with development partners,
particularly in the context of ongoing budgetary support.
External reviews of PFM and fiscal transparency in Vietnam
have noted important progress though highlighted
considerable scope for improvement. This report aims to
complement ongoing PFM reviews, including the
Government's Public Expenditure and Financial
Accountability (PEFA) assessment, to help identify
relatively low cost measures to strengthen fiscal
transparency. It draws on existing diagnostic approaches to
carry out a technical review on the public availability of
fiscal information (section B), and the coverage,
comprehensiveness and presentation of fiscal reports
(sections C and D).
