This paper looks at the correlation between the cyclical components of gross domestic product and the exchange rate and classifies countries' currencies as procyclical if they appreciate in good times, countercyclical if they appreciate in bad times, and acyclical otherwise. With this classification, the paper shows that: (i) the countries that are commodity exporters and experience procyclical capital flows tend to have procyclical currencies; (ii) countries with procyclical currencies tend to restrict their capital accounts, perhaps as an attempt to reduce the degree of procyclicality; (iii) countries with procyclical currencies pursue procyclical monetary policy; (iv) however, in the last decade, there is a disconnect between the cyclicality of currency and monetary policy; and (v) the disconnect may reflect a decline in the fear of floating, which can be partially attributed to an improvement in countries' net foreign asset positions.

Over the past few years, a new system of currency has appeared in our daily life: the
complementary community currency. Indeed, more than 5,000 complementary currencies have
been established lately. As its name suggests, it is a currency used in parallel with the national
currency within a given territory. Based on the principle of local production, sustainable and
social economy, the users are citizens of common life who choose to change their way of living
by adopting responsible acts. Local communities pool their efforts to recognize unmet needs
and to bring solution to create systems that benefit to local producers rather than mass retails.
This works attempts to clarify the different types of complementary community currencies and
to provide the key success factors of those initiatives. Many factors have been found by the
review of the scientific literature and several specific projects were interviewed to validate those
assumptions. It appears that different characteristics should be brought to light in order to offer
successful project depending on the type: either LETS (Local Exchange Trading System) or
local currency.
The qualitative analysis enables us to qualify the type and number of initiators, the size of the
network, the type of financing, the support of the public authorities as some characteristics
among others that will have to be discussed and appropriately chosen to make the project a real
success and to help it succeed in the long run
