Public Financial Management

Sustainable health systems cannot be achieved without strong public financial management (PFM). ThinkWell supports the full cycle of PFM modernization: policy and systems development, results-oriented budgeting, internal control, external audit, and performance reporting.

Our expertise in health finance allows us to make innovative linkages between government-wide systems and health specific resource-management systems such as National Health Accounts and Marginal Budgeting for Bottlenecks. In addition, we support donors to develop government-to-government finance mechanisms. This support includes fiduciary risk assessment, mechanism design, and on-going risk monitoring.

Public Financial Management: The Backbone of Good Governance

We believe that strong public financial management systems are the backbone of well-governed public services. Therefore, our approach also emphasizes budget transparency and civil society engagement through mechanisms such as social audit, public expenditure tracking surveys, and media outreach.
