Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements The Principal Secretary for the National Treasury and the Project Coordinator are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Public Sector Accounting Standards (Cash Basis) and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. The management is also responsible for the submission of the financial statements to the Auditor-General in accordance with the provisions of Section 47 of the Public Audit, 2015. Auditor-General's Responsibility My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on the audit and report in accordance with the provisions of Section 48 of the Public Audit Act, 2015 and submit the audit report in compliance with Article 229(7) of the Constitution. The audit was conducted in accordance with International Standards of Supreme Audit Institutions. Those standards require compliance with ethical requirements and that the audit be planned and performed to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement FinancialSeeforSupport Project (IDA Crectil No.56270- KE) -11nnual Rtpoi-ttindFiiiaiici-il.Slate)itent.v.161 lhe year ended 3 0 June 2016 Promoting AccountabililY in thu Public Secior of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Project's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. I believe that the audit evidence obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my adverse audit opinion. Basis for Adverse Opinion 1. The statement of receipts and payments reflects payments totalling Kshs.39,359,013.00 which differ from the National Treasury's ledger expenditure of Kshs.48,785,710.35 and the total expenditure balance of Kshs.39,414,280.75 reflected by payment vouchers for the year ended 30 June 2016. The differences between the three set of records have not been reconciled or explained. 2. The statement of financial assets reflects under Note 8.2 a bank balance of Kshs.111,223,370.00 as at 30 June 2016 which differs from the bank's certificate balance of Kshs.124,770,240.20 and the cash book bank balance of Kshs.101,040,133.75 reflected on the same date. The differences between the three set of records have, similarly, not been reconciled or explained. Adverse Opinion In my opinion, because of the significance of the matters discussed in the Basis for Adverse Opinion paragraph, the financial statements do not present fairly, the financial position of the Financial Sector Support Project as at 30 June 2016 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Public Sector Accounting Standards (Cash Basis) and the Financing Agreement No. 5627-KE dated 4 June 2015.

The economic pillar of this strategy aspires to achieve high economic background growth based on high national savings rates, which highlights the central role to be played information by the financial sector. The financial sector is explicitly identified as one of the seven fast- of the project track sectors in Vision 2030. Among its main objectives for financial sector development the strategy identifies: (i) improving stability; (ii) enhancing efficiency in the delivery of credit and other financial services, and; (iii) improving access to financial services products for a much large number of Kenyans. The current Financial Services Medium term Plan II qmTP2) 2013-17 concretizes these goals by listing specific projects/programs that feature on the GoK's priority list. The World Bank support to financial sector development in Kenya over the last decade was delivered largely, but not entirely, under the umbrella of the Financial and Legal Sector Technical Assistance Project (FLSTAP). FLSTAP was approved in October 2014 as a technical assistance loan with an IDA credit of US$18 million and DFID co- financing of US$10 million. The overall development objective (PDO) for the project was to create a sound financial system and strengthened legal framework and judicial capacity that would ensure broad access to financial and related legal services.

In addition, the GoK ith support from other partners such as Financial Sector Deepening Kenya, has implemented various other reforms in the financial sector. The FSSP project will build on previous financial sector reforms and the gains realized through FLSTAP. It will take into account the progress made on the stability and access fronts by the financial sector over the duration of the project and the evolving needs of the financial and real sector.

The project being new and as usual new projects take some time to kick off activity implementation as a result of project start up processes; ii. Budgetary issues due to the fact that the project became effective in July 2015 after the completion of FY2015/16 Government Budget Preparation and approvals and therefore it took some time before the project received authority to spend pending regularization of its estimates; iii. No significant budget utilisation/ performance differences has been realised y the Project to be disclosed in these financial statements.
