CREFIAF – Regional Support to French/Portugese Supreme Audit Institutions

The main objective of this project is to improve professionalism and quality of audit work of CREFIAF member institutions on financial audits with issuance of audit opinions. The project will mainly promote (i) the actual enforcement of the professional auditing standards recently developed by CREFIAF, building on the work of the International Association of Supreme Audit Institutions (INTOSAI); and (ii) the development of a better relationship between the SAIs and external stakeholders with a view to reinforce the effectiveness of the external oversight system for public funds.
 
It is being part of the World Bank’s response to a request for support received from CREFIAF within the context of the Global Call for proposals 2011 in support of Supreme Audit Institutions organized by INTOSAI.
