Our goals for you:

To handle the diverse tasks of the district administration, high financial resources are required, especially for transfer expenditures in the youth and social sectors. 

Responsible handling of the funds available to the district has the highest priority and is regularly reviewed through the recurring planning of the district budget.

To ensure that the necessary financial resources are always available in time, in addition to forward-looking financial planning and active financial and liquidity management, timely and complete collection of outstanding receivables is also required. 

In addition, the Oberbergischer Kreis sees itself as a partner of crafts and companies that provide services for the Oberbergischer Kreis and maintain the Oberberg infrastructure. 

The Oberbergischer Kreis is certified as a SME-friendly economic location. A feature of the certification is the payment of order invoices within 15 days at the latest, with the premise being the fastest possible payment of invoices.
