Authors : Harmel Ibtissem . Diafi Nawel .

Abstract

Against the backdrop of public financial reform in Algeria, this study aims to explore the anticipated impact of adopting the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) on improving both the preparation and execution of Algeria’s general budget. To achieve this aim, a questionnaire was administered to a selected group of 45 practitioners, including ordonnateurs, public accountants, budget controllers, budget inspectors, and senior officials within the Ministry of Finance. The collected data were statistically analyzed using SPSS. The results show that the Algerian government’s adoption of IPSAS represents a fundamental step toward budgetary reform, with a notably significant positive impact of this adoption on enhancing the effectiveness and accuracy of both budget preparation and implementation.
