Fiscal systems shape not only budgets but also public confidence. This article presents the Transparent Fiscal Sustainability (TFS) framework—a three-pillar model linking ethics, oversight, and participation to credible green budgeting. Governments that disclose data, verify results, and invite citizens into decision-making tend to manage debt and climate commitments more effectively. Drawing on recent IMF, OECD, and ADB materials, the paper outlines measurable indicators and small, practical tools that embed integrity in fiscal operations. In short, transparency keeps policy believable and reform sustainable.
