Sponsored by the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), NARUC conducted a technical training for staff of the Regulatory Financial Reporting Analysis (RFRA) Unit on implementing a uniform system of accounts (USoA) and analysis of audited utility financial statements. Through utilizing their USoA, regulatory staff can ensure consistency, comparability, and transparency in financial accounting and reporting for regulated utilities. These attributes are critical to allow regulators to set rates, achieve cost-reflective tariffs, and review financial viability of the utilities. The training provided the staff of the RFRA with practical skills to fulfill their functions at NERC, and training materials were shared to serve as the basis for continued learning within NERC for current and new NERC staff members, thus ensuring continuity in future years.
