Quarterly Financial Report

The Office of the Chief Financial Officer of Global Affairs Canada prepares the financial statements of the Department. The financial statements are prepared on an annual basis as of March 31st following guidelines in the Directive on Accounting Standards: GC 4500 Departmental Financial Statements. This was developed using the recommendations of the Public Sector Accounting Board (PSAB) of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (CICA). The objectives of the general-purpose financial statements are to provide an accounting of the Department's administration of its public financial affairs and resources. It is for a variety of users both within the government and external to it and is meant to serve all of their different needs. The primary focus of the financial statements is geared towards external readers as they do not have access to the Departments specialized financial reports. Additional information on the Department's performance is available within our departmental results reports.
