I saw this post and thought I would share a book review I just did on a book I read by a NZ writer about the money system. She is a proponent of local currencies and I think this is also a topic you might find interesting.

I think there is value in banking with local institutions. However, I will admit there are advantages of the big boys when traveling over seas. :)
