Abstract: The Buru Regency Government, as the party tasked with administering government, development, and public services, is required to report on regional financial accountability as the basis for assessing its financial performance. The purpose of this study is to assess regional financial performance using ratios from 2020 to 2024, consisting of: Regional Fiscal Independence; Effectiveness of PAD Management; Effectiveness of Regional Taxes; Degree of Fiscal Decentralization; Fiscal Dependency; and Growth of Regional Government Finance in Buru Regency. Using secondary data sourced from the Ministry of Finance website, this study concludes that the financial performance of the Buru Regency Government consists of: 1) the regional fiscal autonomy ratio is still very low with an instructive relationship pattern, indicating that the local government is not yet capable of financing its own government activities, development, and services to the community, and the local government still needs intervention from the central government; 2) the fiscal decentralization ratio indicates that the local government's ability to increase its own revenue (PAD) to finance its own development is still very limited; 3) the local tax effectiveness ratio and local revenue (PAD) indicate that the local government is less effective in realizing tax revenue and local revenue (PAD) from the set targets and real potential; 4) The fiscal dependency ratio shows that the Buru Regency local government is still highly dependent on assistance from the central and provincial governments compared to its own regional revenue; 5) The PAD growth ratio shows that the local government is poor/negative in maintaining and increasing PAD.
