Financial Accountability & Management (FAM)

Financial Accountability & Management is a well‑established scholarly journal first published in 1985 and issued quarterly by John Wiley & Sons (Wiley‑Blackwell). The journal serves as a leading international platform for research that critically examines financial accountability systems, public sector financial governance, and the broader management of financial resources in contexts where accountability structures play a central role in organizational effectiveness. Its interdisciplinary orientation bridges theoretical and empirical work from fields including accounting, finance, public administration, economics, political science, and management — particularly as they relate to public and non‑profit sectors that operate outside conventional profit‑maximizing frameworks. Over the decades, the journal has published influential research on topics such as budgeting and planning, cost measurement and control, financial performance evaluation, audit and financial reporting, governance mechanisms, accountability reporting, and the linkage between financial and social accountability. Its emphasis on rigorous peer review ensures that contributions are both academically sound and relevant to policymakers, practitioners, and academics interested in improving transparency, effectiveness, and accountability in public financial management. By fostering dialogue across disciplines and highlighting policy‑relevant scholarship, Financial Accountability & Management continues to shape understanding of financial accountability challenges and responses in public, non‑profit, and mixed‑sector environments worldwide.
