| Summary: | The North West Frontier Province (NWFP)
is the third largest province of Pakistan. The province is
landlocked and the land routes to the north are few and
difficult, passing through hilly terrain. The province
itself is largely mountainous, with only 30 percent
cultivated land. Nearly 50 percent of the population lives
in the mountainous and arid areas. The province shares a
long border with eastern and southern Afghanistan and most
of its population has the same ethnic background (Pushtoon)
as parts of bordering Afghanistan. This document reports on
a Performance Measurement Framework (PFM) assessment by
describing the existing financial systems briefly and rating
these systems against the laid down indicators of the PFM
Performance Measurement Framework. The study has been
conducted in line with the Public Financial Management
Performance Measurement Framework, using six critical
dimensions of performance for an open and orderly PFM system. |
