Digitalisation presents a huge opportunity to transform Public Financial Management (PFM), particularly in Africa, and offers safe pathways to improved efficiency, transparency, and quality service delivery. This position paper outlines a purpose-driven approach to digital transformation grounded in human-cantered design, enhanced cybersecurity, and data governance. Drawing from insights, case studies and experiences gathered through a recent webinar hosted by the African Association of Accountants General (AAAG) on the topic, this paper recommends secure, paperless workflows, interoperability, and capacity development as central to Africa’s PFM reform agenda. It also addresses legal, institutional, and political barriers while proposing pragmatic, strategic, and evidence-based policy interventions.
