| Since
1950, the Association of Government Accountants has
been--and remains today--the educational organization
dedicated to the enhancement of public financial management.
AGA serves the professional interests of financial managers,
from local, state and federal governments, as well as public
accounting firms, responsible for effectively using billions
of dollars and other monetary resources every day.
For
more than 50 years, AGA has been addressing the issues and
challenges facing government financial managers. Our
organization has been instrumental in developing accounting
and auditing standards and in generating new concepts for
the effective organization and administration of financial
management functions, including the passage of the Inspector
General Act of 1978 and the Chief Financial Officer's Act of
1990. AGA conducts independent research and analysis of all
aspects of government financial management. These studies
have led AGA to be recognized as a leading advocate for
improving the quality and effectiveness of government fiscal
administration. |
