FederalNewsRadio - Ask the CFO - Thomas Bellamy (PC)

Thomas Bellamy - Deputy Chief Financial Officer

Getting the unqualified opinion required the financial managers to work ever more closely with posts across the world to ensure they had the necessary documentation as well as the right amount of flexibility so that funds did not go unused. Bellamy says the process also benefited from strong leadership at all levels, a focus on fiscal responsibility through strong customer service and a solid relationship with the Peace Corps Inspector General.
