Introduction
Financial management is the backbone of every organisation, whether in government, statutory bodies, non-profits, or the private sector. It is not just about controlling expenditure or keeping accounts in order, but about using resources wisely to generate value, ensure sustainability, and support long-term goals. In today’s dynamic environment, where budgets are tight and expectations are high, organisations in Asia and beyond must learn how to balance financial discipline with opportunities for growth.

organisation and its stakeholders.
