THE PAMANTASAN ng Lungsod ng Maynila has maintained its best audit rating from the Commission on Audit for the fourth straight year.

COA awarded the PLM another “unmodified opinion” for its financial records for calendar year 2021.

In a letter to University President Emmanuel Leyco, COA Director IV Atty. Maria Carmina Paulita B. Juguilon-Pagayawan said that auditors rendered an unmodified opinion on the fairness of the presentation of PLM’s financial statements.

The COA praised the university’s “support and cooperation” during the audit.

“We are honored and proud to continue this tradition of clean and transparent operations of the University since I took office,” Leyco said.

“This again affirms the commitment of PLM and of the City Government of Manila to embody good governance and maintain the high quality of education we offer to students. We also thank PLM executives, faculty, and staff for doing their part in ensuring proper financial recordkeeping and disbursements,” he added.
