Representatives of the participating countries expressed great interest in the electronic service system of the Georgian State Treasury and its operation principles, measures taken to put in place an integrated PFM system, as well as the General Ledger concept developed by the State Treasury (also planned to be introduced in 2013) and issues related to management and accounting of donor funded projects. Georgia is one of the regional leaders in introducing best practices in the field.
