The Terra TRC: A Global Complementary Currency to Stabilize the World Economy

Submitted by on January 14, 2010 – 10:54 pm2 Comments

The Terra is a global complementary currency designed to provide an inflation-resistant international standard of value; to stabilize the business cycle on a global level; and to realign stockholder’s interests with long-term sustainability.   From a legal viewpoint, the Terra is standardized “countertrade” (international barter), which is routinely used for over one trillion dollars worth of transactions per year.   Legislation on countertrade exists in about two hundred countries, including all the major trading nations.  Introducing the Terra would therefore not require new international governmental agreements.
