INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA
(Established under the Accountants Act, Laws of Kenya)
IPSAS Accrual
Theme: Enhancing Transparency and Accountability Through Effective Application of Accrual-Based IPSAS
Date: 24th November 2026
Time: 4:00-6:00pm
Delivery Mode: Virtual
Overview
Accrual-based IPSAS strengthens public sector financial management by improving transparency, accountability, and decision-making. By recognizing assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses when they occur, it provides a fuller and more accurate view of an entity’s financial position and performance.
Moving to IPSAS Accrual is more than an accounting change; it reshapes how public sector organizations plan, manage, and report finances. It supports better cost analysis, asset and liability management, long-term planning, and evidence-based policy and budgeting.
Despite progress, many entities still face challenges in recognition, measurement, asset management, employee benefits, revenue recognition, disclosures, and IPSAS-compliant reporting. Addressing these requires continuous professional development and strong knowledge of accrual principles and IPSAS updates.
The changing public financial management environment calls for greater consistency, comparability, and accountability in reporting. Effective IPSAS Accrual application improves stewardship, audit outcomes, compliance, and public trust by ensuring financial information reflects the substance of transactions.
This webinar will offer practical insights into IPSAS Accrual principles, including recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements. Through examples, discussions, and case scenarios, participants will explore common challenges and practical ways to improve public sector reporting.
ICPAK has organized this webinar to equip members with practical knowledge and current developments in IPSAS Accrual, strengthening technical competence and supporting consistent application for transparency, accountability, and effective stewardship of public resources.
