Historical Analysis of Policy Environments on Marine Corps Financial Management

Abstract

Policy environments have directly influenced how the Marine Corps conducts financial management. When pressures have been weak, the Marine Corps historically put little focus on financial management. Only when strong oversight demanded so has the Marine Corps put much emphasis, specialization, and delegation into financial management. This pattern has generally not induced unsurmountable problems over the long-run, but recent Congressional pressures indicate another correction may be warranted to pass a clean external audit.
