The Soudicy is a local complementary currency issued by an association in Soudicy, a commune in the Allier department of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. France saw a proliferation of such monnaies locales complémentaires in the 2010s, accelerated by the 2014 ESS law (Économie Sociale et Solidaire), which gave formal legal recognition to local exchange networks and cooperatives. The Soudicy fits squarely within that movement — designed to keep spending within a defined local economy rather than leaking out to national retail chains.
The "13" denomination is atypical; most French complementary currencies anchor to round euro-equivalent units.
