Abstract: THE ROLE OF INTERNATIONAL ACCOUNTANTS IN PUBLIC SECTOR FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
The primary objectives of this study are to: (1) identify the contributions of international accountants in enhancing transparency and accountability in public sector financial management; (2) evaluate the effectiveness of international accounting standards in the public sector; and (3) assess the impact of international accountants on financial reporting quality in public institutions. A survey research design is adopted to gather quantitative data from a large population efficiently and to ensure the generalizability of the findings. The sample size, determined using Taro Yamane's formula, consists of 400 accountants and financial managers in the public sector across Abuja, Nigeria, ensuring a representative and statistically significant sample. The case study focuses on the Federal Ministry of Finance in Abuja to provide contextual insights. A reliability coefficient score of 0.85 was achieved, indicating high reliability of the survey instrument. Findings reveal that international accountants significantly enhance the quality of financial reporting, improve adherence to global standards, and promote greater transparency and accountability. Recommendations include the continuous training of public sector accountants on international standards, increased collaboration with international accounting bodies, and the implementation of policies that support the integration of international accounting practices in the public sector.
