She helps steer the CAG’s input into the IPSASB’s strategy and standard-setting, drawing on expertise from across its membership.

Colignon previously served as a practice fellow at the IFRS Interpretations Committee and held a senior role at the Public Sector Accounting Standards Council, or CNoCP, an advisory body under the French Ministry of Finance.

Colignon said: “I am honoured to continue serving as chair of the IPSASB Consultative Advisory Group.

“One of the CAG’s greatest strengths is the breadth of experience and perspectives its members bring from across the global public sector community.

“Those insights help shape the IPSASB’s priorities and ensure its standards and activities remain responsive to the needs of stakeholders and the public interest.”

The CAG, made up of 25 representatives from public sector bodies and individual members, provides advice on strategy, technical issues, implementation and other matters linked to public interest.

IPSASB chair Thomas Müller-Marqués Berger said: “We are fortunate to have Fabienne Colignon continue her leadership of the IPSASB CAG for another three years.

“The CAG is critical in ensuring the IPSASB benefits from the grounded perspectives, practical experience and strategic insights that only its diverse membership can provide.

“CAG advice helps us stay responsive to emerging issues and focused on solving real-life accounting and reporting issues.

“Fabienne has been instrumental in fostering meaningful dialogue and engagement between the CAG and IPSASB, and I look forward to our continuing our close collaboration.”

In February this year, the IPSASB introduced a new public sector climate disclosure standard.
