Despite the implementation of participatory budgeting, parastatals still experience challenges which lead to poor financial performance. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of awareness of budget process regulations on financial performance of parastatals with liquidity gaps in Kenya. The study was guided by; budget theory, resource dependence theory and agency theory. Positivism philosophy was adopted. Correlational research design was used on a population of 424 officers consisting of 8 procurement officers, 240 procurement clerks, 8 finance officers, 76 accountants and 8 managing directors from the parastatals. A purposive sampling technique was used to obtain the sample size. Primary data was collected by use of questionnaires while secondary data was collected through analysis of audited financial statements. Data were analyzed using SPSS. Reliability of research instruments was tested through Cronbach’s Alpha and construct validity was assessed through factor analysis. Awareness of budget process regulations had a regression coefficient of -0.056 and a p-value of 0.009 indicating a significant relationship on financial performance. The information obtained will help the government formulate strategies and polices to help in creating awareness of budget process regulations to the public. It also recommends that parastatals should create more awareness of budget process to the subordinates by the management.
