Abstract(in English) The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of neutral currency as a local currency on the economy using multi-agent simulation. As a preliminary step, an economic simulation model of legal currency without neutral currency was prepared. The model consists of consumers, producers and banks. The consumers determine the demand function based on the utility maximization problem under the budget constraints. The producers determine the supply function based on the profit maximization problem. The bank determines the interest rate on the next step legal currency based on the revenue maximization problem. The market equilibrium price is obtained from the demand function and the supply function. In addition, consumers have a trend prediction function to predict and act on the current price based on the price and trend so far. Using this economic model, we investigated changes in interest rates and prices. The simulation results show that interest rates and prices fluctuate rapidly with time. It seems to be able to reproduce the complicated movement of actual economy. However, the motion is too extreme, and further modification of the model is necessary.
