Local Government Accounting Services That Address Public Sector Challenges

Running a local government body or state enterprise in Cyprus means dealing with tight budgets, funding cuts, EU procurement rules, shared-service pressures, and the constant need to demonstrate value for money to citizens and auditors.

At A&C Christofi Ltd, we’ve worked with Cypriot public entities for decades from our Limassol base, helping municipalities, councils, and state organisations improve efficiency, ensure compliance, and focus on delivering public services effectively.

Specialized Expertise: From Municipalities to State Enterprises and Local Authorities

Local government is the foundation of Cyprus – from the 30 municipalities and 286 communities providing daily services to state enterprises such as utilities and transport bodies that support national infrastructure. We work with every kind of public entity on the island:

• Municipalities and district councils
• Local communities and village councils
• State-owned enterprises (SOEs)
• Semi-government organisations
• Public utilities and transport authorities
• Regulatory bodies and commissions
• EU-funded local projects
• Social welfare and health boards

Our team stays fully up-to-date with the issues that matter most to Cypriot local government bodies, including IPSAS accrual accounting transitions, Auditor General audits, EU structural fund compliance, value-for-money reviews, shared-service frameworks, internal control testing, procurement regulations, and the evolving demands of transparency and fiscal responsibility.
