This article deals with a currently discussed topic, namely that of preventive financial control, a concept that has to ensure a reasonable use of public funds in a transparent, economical, efficient and effective manner.

I further detail the concept of public financial control with the two principal branches, that is the preventive financial control and the preventive financial control proper. The preventive financial control proper, by exercising the control visa for every financial supporting document affecting public funds, is a cornerstone regarding the exercise of financial control activity.
