Regional financial ratio analysis is important to see how the region can manage finances effectively and efficiently. The results of financial analysis in Blitar Regency for the years 2019-2023 show that the Regional Financial Dependency Ratio fluctuates, with a high average of 72%, indicating a significant dependence on the central government. The Regional Financial Freedom Ratio, although increased during the Covid-19 pandemic, remains low at an average of 24%, indicating a pattern of consultative relations with the central government. The Decentralization Degree Ratio is also low, averaging 12.99%, indicating a lack of regional capacity to generate their own income. The Tax Effectiveness Ratio shows a very effective performance with an average of 113%, indicating the realization of tax revenue exceeding the target.
