New wind in St. Georgenens Raiffeisenbank: Renate Fürst chosen as chairwoman

History has been written in St. Georgen am Walde: Renate Fürst was elected to the first chairwoman of the community of Raiffeisen, since its foundation in 1896. The 47-year-old, who also works as a leader manager and managing director of the regional association Mühlviertler Alm, unanimously prevailed against the expectations.

Renate Fürst follows Josef Raffetseder, who held the position over 28 years. Raffetseder, who took the first step into the Raiffeisenbank world in 1993, took on the chairman in 1996 and played a crucial role in the establishment of the administrative community of Raiffeisenbank Mühlviertler Alm, which was able to significantly increase the efficiency of the banking points in the region. "Framework conditions and synergies strengthen the bank and its developments," said Raffetseder in his farewell speech.

renovation and technical upgrade

The banking point is characterized by continuous development, which is to be continued in the future. For February 2025, an extensive renovation of the bank building is planned, which is carried out under the direction of banking manager Patrick Rosinger. The renovation work will not only bring the external appearance, but also the technical equipment up to date. "We want to make sure that all security requirements are met," explained Rosinger.

A special focus of Raiffeisenbank is on the support of regional projects. Franz Hackl, director of the bank, emphasized the importance of such initiatives: "Current projects such as the local catering center in Dimbach and energy -efficient living in Schönau show the active role that we play in regional development." The changeover of the committee system to a full -time board was also addressed, with Herbert Zeitlhofer and Franz Hackl taking over the board.

The co -owner meeting not only included the new election of the chairwoman, but also a musical highlight: the market music band St. Georgen am Walde ensured the musical frame of the event. A donation to brass music was also handed over in recent speeches. "We want to actively support the funding in the region," said Fürst during the handover to the chairman of brass music, Patrick Hochstöger.

In addition, during the St. Georgen shopping coins, new delegates were elected for the committee. Gabriele Kastenhofer was honored for her many years of delegate activity, which underlines the importance of engagement in the community.

The developments within the Raiffeisenbank Mühlviertler Alm are in line with a business upswing, as Robert Preinfalk from Raiffeisenlandesbank Oberösterreich reported. The focus is on the creation of regional solutions, especially through the new online marketplace "Find-R". This is regarded as support for the local economy and is intended to strengthen the proximity between the customers and the bank.
