ASSET MANAGEMENT IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to study the patrimonial control of assets in public administration as an instrument of public governance. As peculiar purposes we tried to understand the fundamentals of Public Administration and to outline the methodologies, technologies and resources instituted in the patrimonial control by the Public Entity. Because public resources are reserved for the support of a collective interest, they need to be governed in such a way as to enhance the rights of society considering the constitutional precepts of legality, impersonality, morality, publicity and efficiency. Regarding administrative actions, this connection was never obeyed and internal and external control instruments were constituted. Asset control is a type of internal control that includes the management of up-to-date information on durable public goods as well as information about the acquisition responsible for the asset load and low-asset documents.
