Abstract: The paper shows how complementary currencies can contribute to local services and regional development. Complementary currencies can lead to a better distribution of resources on a small scale and thus have, though limited, market-creating, market-expanding or market-preserving functions. They are also a means of communitization and generate social capital. In addition, they can strengthen non-market exchanges and contribute to increased appreciation of benefits based on mutuality.
