Speaker - Peter Worth, BA (Hons), CIPFA, MAAT

A nationally recognised authority on local government accounting, Peter has over 30 years of experience of providing advice on issues including:

  • IFRS and code disclosure requirements
  • capital finance and accounting
  • investments and treasury management
  • LGPS accounting
  • service concessions and leasing

Peter spent seven years working in local authorities before moving across to external audit when he joined the Audit Commission in 1989. As a senior technical manager at the commission, he was instrumental in establishing their well-regarded technical helpdesk service. He left in 2012 to set up Worth Technical Accounting Solutions which provides bespoke consultancy services for local government clients. Combining on-site work with his role as a CIPFA associate and LAAP member ensures that Peter remains at the forefront of accounting developments nationally but in touch with current issues for practitioners.

Peter regularly delivers training and presentations to CIPFA, Audit Scotland and other professional bodies, and has worked with central government on a range of matters affecting local government finance. He has co-authored a number of CIPFA publications including Guidance Notes for Practitioners and the example Local Government Pension Fund accounts.

Webchat is available Monday to Friday, 09:00 - 17:00 (excluding UK bank holidays).
