MFMA Processes & Reporting: Where Things Usually Fall Apart

Strong accounting means little if the underlying processes and reporting are weak. This session focuses on MFMA processes and reporting and how breakdowns in these areas lead to audit findings, investigations, and reputational damage. Delegates will gain a clear understanding of how budgeting, expenditure management, reporting cycles, and oversight processes work together under the MFMA. The session highlights where processes commonly fail, how reporting becomes unreliable, and why finance professionals are often held accountable. Designed for professionals working in or with municipalities, this session explains how proper processes support accurate reporting and accountability. By the end of the session, delegates will better understand how to strengthen MFMA processes, improve reporting quality, and reduce personal and organisational risk.
