This report examines the management of financial resources to deliver better public services effectively. Divided into four parts, with appendices, it looks at the following areas: Part 1: The importance of managing financial resources; Part 2: Developing the skills and awareness necessary for effective financial resource management; Part 3: Improving departments' use of techniques and practices for managing financial resources; Part 4: The impact of improved management and financial resources. Financial rsource management is relevant to every aspect of a Government department's business. By 2010-11, central government spending is forecast to grow to £678 billion, which represents £11,000 for every person in the UK. The NAO has set out a number of findings and recommendations, including: that the lack of financial skills and awareness amongst non-finance staff remains a significant barrier to improving the management of financial resources across government; that some departments lack a qualified Finance Director at Board level; that senior managers in many departments are not provided with incentives to promote sound management of financial resources; that Departments could do more to improve their forecasting capabilities; that some Departments are not sufficiently well placed to integrate financial and operational performance information; that many Departments do not always ensure the full assessment of the financial implications of policy proposals.

* What principles should be adopted when allocating financial resources within higher education institutions?* How do internal and external factors influence resource allocation systems and what impact do these systems have on institutional and individual behaviour?* How best should expenditure be monitored in universities and colleges?This book provides a practical guide (from both departmental and central perspectives) to the management of financial resources in institutions of higher education. Following a review of the impact of a changing external environment, a three stage approach to the allocation of resources is outlined, namely: understanding sources of income, application of strategic considerations, and distribution to departments and faculties. Concepts of devolution and formula-based systems of allocation are considered in the context of the culture and structure of institutions, their impact on staff and the way in which institutional and individual behaviour patterns are affected. A concluding chapter summarizes themes relating to the management of change and highlights managerial implications.

Another important feature of the book is that it places accounting and financial
information in the wider context of organizational life. In order to do this, the book
concentrates on one type of financial information – management accountancy ...
