The Influence of Corruption on Public Sector Accounting in Zimbabwe

Author(s) Richard Kunyeti
Country Zimbabwe
Abstract The public sector in Zimbabwe is severely challenged by corruption, which undermines accountability, transparency, and effective financial management. This study investigates how widespread corruption is in Zimbabwe's public sector accounting, underlining how it weakens governance structures, affects financial reporting, and undermines the provision of public services. This study provides an in-depth assessment of the systemic nature of corruption and its adverse consequences in Zimbabwe's public sector, applying theoretical frameworks such as Institutional Theory and Principal-Agent Theory. Furthermore, it explores techniques to reduce corruption, like adopting digital accounting systems and strengthening supervision procedures and reforms.
Keywords Corruption, public sector accounting, Zimbabwe, Principal-Agent Theory, Institutional Theory, governance, financial management, transparency.
