Keto Honored With Fiscal Integrity Award

Associate Vice Chancellor for Finance and Resource Management Stephen Keto received the 2012 North Carolina State Controller’s Fiscal Integrity Award – a significant honor given to a state employee or agency demonstrating “exemplary adherence to the ethical principles of fiscal integrity and honesty.” The award also honors those “working to sustain open government” and those earning “a reputation for fairness and service to the citizens of the state.”

State Controller David McCoy presented the award at yesterday’s OSC Financial Conference.

“Throughout his 25 years of service, Keto has embodied the traits of this award by raising ethical standards for state public officials, increasing transparency, and inspiring personal and professional integrity in state government,” McCoy says.

Keto was nominated for the award by Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business, Charles Leffler, and members of Keto’s leadership team.
