A central financial reporting system enables the diocese to compare income, expenditure, assets, liabilities, and other relevant indicators.

Fiscal management is not merely an administrative or financial concern, but an intrinsic part of pastoral ministry; an instrument that must remain subordinate to pastoral vision in order to promote the holistic salvation of the human person.  

The paradox of digitalisation is that rural dioceses, parishes, and schools need digitalisation more than their urban counterparts.   

Subsidiarity-integrated centralisation pools resources; leverage multiplies their pastoral usefulness, and an asymmetric pastoral model enables the fruits of this multiplication to be distributed according to pastoral needs rather than in proportion to individual contributions.
