Province of Santa Fe, Republic of Argentina : Public Financial Management AssessmentThe assessment for the Province of Santa
 Fe was prepared jointly by the Ministry of Finance of the
 Province of Santa Fe and the World Bank (WB) on the basis of
 findings from missions. It seeks to: (i) provide the
 provincial government with a reference tool for dialogue and
 action to strengthen their public financial management
 systems; (ii) assess the province's PFM systems and
 identify and address their main fiduciary issues, as well as
 their impact on the implementation of World Bank operations;
 and (iii) contribute in a broader sense to the dialogue
 between the Bank and Argentina's national and
 provincial authorities regarding fiduciary portfolio
 management and reliance on the country's systems. The
 assessment is not a fully fledged PFM performance report
 using all PEFA performance indicators. As agreed with the
 provincial government and the World Bank s Country
 Management Unit, the team selected and used 19 PFM
 performance indicators (PI 1, PI 4, PI 5-7, PI 9-12, PI
 16-18, and PI 20-26) to review the status of PFM in the
 province. The report was prepared based on the findings of
 the missions that visited Argentina in the first semester of
 2009 and refers to the 2006-2008 fiscal years. The report
 was completed in June 2012 and highlights the progress and
 improvement in some PFM areas since 2009 whenever provided

Colombia - National Level Public Financial Management and Procurement Report : Public Financial Management PerformanceThis Public Financial Management
 Performance Report (PFMPR) analyzes the performance of
 Colombia's public financial management (PFM)
 institutions, systems and processes. It documents areas
 where performance is close to or follows international good
 practice, as well as opportunities to further enhance PFM
 contribution to the goals of strengthening fiscal
 discipline, enabling more efficient allocation of resources,
 increasing operational efficiency, and fostering
 transparency. It is expected that the identified
 opportunities will strengthen further the Government of
 Colombia's programs of continuous PFM improvement, as
 provided for under the National Development Plan pillar
 regarding a state at the service of its citizens: efficient
 and effective Government. The main challenges cited in the
 report could also be an important reference to future
 development plans and PFM reforms. Ensuring the
 sustainability and trajectory of PFM programs becomes even
 more critical in the context of public expenditure policies
 to deal with the current international economic crisis. The
 study is based on the 28 high-level indicators and 69
 individual dimensions that compose the PFM performance
 measurement framework. Each indicator seeks to measure
 performance of a key PFM element against a scale from A to
 D. The highest score is warranted for an individual
 indicator if the core PFM element meets the relevant
 objective in a complete, orderly, accurate, timely and
 coordinated way, based on existing good international practices.
