WEBSITE
Iskor ng Bayan

The Iskor ng Bayan LGU Portal is a mechanism to check the financial performance of Philippine local governments. In line with the Bureau of Local Government Finance's (BLGF) mandate to supervise and monitor the revenue operations of the LGUs, and its thrust to promote good governance at all levels, the Bureau assessed the fiscal performance of all LGUs through the LGU Fiscal Sustainability Scorecard.
