The Pacific Financial Technical
Assistance Center (PFTAC) was established in Fiji in 1993 to provide technical
advice and capacity building to 15 Pacific island countries (PICs).
The
Center is operated by the IMF in consultation with the governments of the PICs
and the donors supporting it. The ultimate objective of PFTAC is to assist the
PICs in their efforts to achieve their long-term development goals, PFTAC will
assist with the development of skills and institutional capacity of PICs in the
diagnosis, prioritization and implementation of appropriate policy, procedures
and systems underpinning good practice in economic and financial management.
It will do so in its
traditional four Program Areas, and liaise closely with national governments and
development partners. PFTAC is a center of quality advice and capacity
building on the technical aspects of financial and economic formulation and
management to member countries, regional bodies and other TA providers in the
Pacific Region.
