Title: Supreme Audit Institutions Independence Index : 2021 Global Synthesis Report
Post by: chandra on August 05, 2021, 14:33:23 GMT
The World Bank has just released a report on Supreme Audit Institutions Independence Index : 2021 Global Synthesis Report
This report aims to inform and better equip World Bank task teams and development partners to support the strengthening of Supreme Audit Institutions (SAIs) in client countries.
It also aims to help focus the ongoing collaboration between the International Organisation of Supreme Audit Institution (INTOSAI) and development agencies to address the intractable SAI independence issue. The report also responds to yearnings of several development partners to better understand the degree of SAI independence in countries and regions.
Here is link for the report.

A good drill down on PEFA indicator PI-30.4.
It would be good to see a country by country score for each of the 10 indicators listed in table 2 perhaps as an annex.  These underpin the country scores in Figure 2 so understanding how the average has been reached would be good from a reform perspective.
