Associazione Nazionale Banche del Tempo

Time Bank Network·active·Italy

Italian time banks trade hours instead of money, and this association links them into one national network. One hour of help earns one hour of credit, and every member's hour counts the same. Members cook, teach, repair, keep company and run errands for each other. The association started in June 2007 at Ali Terme in Sicily and runs regional coordinations and a yearly national assembly.

M69 Verdict

Nineteen years of a national network where the unit is one hour and every person's hour is worth the same. Issuance is debt-free and tied to work actually delivered, and nothing in it touches a bank, which is why it scores at the top on issuance and on fiat independence. Traction is the honest brake: no published membership figure, no merchants, and a movement past its peak size.

Detailed Rating Breakdown

Issuance Model3x
5.0

IM-01 4 (any member creates credit simply by giving an hour, subject only to joining a local bank), IM-02 4 (a negative balance is an obligation to give time back, and it carries no interest and no collateral), IM-03 5 (every unit is one hour of work that was actually delivered, which is the tightest link to real activity in the catalogue), IM-04 5 (supply expands and contracts with hours given and taken, no cap), IM-05 5 (spending an hour destroys it automatically). Average 4.6.

Spending Power Stability2x
4.0

SPS-01 3 (the unit is stable by definition rather than by any targeting mechanism), SPS-02 4 (one hour of care is the benchmark, which the framework treats as a genuine real-activity anchor), SPS-03 3 (each local bank keeps its own ledger, often on paper), SPS-04 5 (an hour has bought an hour for the whole life of the movement), SPS-05 4 (an hour holds its meaning across decades), SPS-06 2 (you have to be in a local time bank). Weighted 3.7.

Fiat Independence & Interoperability2x
5.0

The strongest category and the reason the total lands where it does. FI-01 5 (the unit of account is the hour, defined without reference to any currency), FI-02 5 (there are no reserves at all), FI-03 5 (no bank account is involved in the money), FI-04 5, FI-05 5 (a euro collapse has no transmission path into an hours ledger), FI-06 5 (it was never fiat based, so there is nothing to transition from), FI-07 4 (each local bank runs its own ledger on the same hour standard), FI-08 3 (cross-bank exchange happens through the association rather than through a published standard). Weighted 4.6.

Traction2x
3.0

TR-01 4 (events run through June 2026, but the movement is smaller than it was), TR-02 5 (the association since 2007, Italian time banks since 1992), TR-03 2 (no membership figure is published anywhere the association owns), TR-04 1 (there are no merchants, all exchange is person to person), TR-05 5 (every exchange is priced in hours, which is as strong as this question gets), TR-06 4 (a named president and a live national assembly), TR-07 4 (municipalities, and European projects with Spain, Portugal and Kyrgyzstan), TR-08 5 (Italian law 53/2000 names time banks and academic work covers them), TR-09 5 (entirely volunteer, no subsidy drives the exchange), TR-10 3 (steady activity, no growth figures), TR-11 4 (thirty-year anniversaries and a clear founding story). Weighted 3.5.

Sovereignty
3.0

SO-01 4 (no one can switch off dozens of independent local associations), SO-02 4 (anyone can start a time bank, the method is public), SO-03 2 (Italian law and Italian associations), SO-04 5 (no money is held, so there is nothing to custody or seize), SO-05 3 (the national association rests on a few volunteers, the local banks do not), SO-06 5 (no third party is needed), SO-07 3 (a local bank admits and can expel members), SO-08 4 (local ledgers, no surveillance infrastructure), SO-09 1 (nothing technical enforces the rules, they are statutes and habit). Weighted 3.2.

Governance
3.0

GO-01 4 (statutes, a national assembly, regional coordinations), GO-02 4 (member time banks vote), GO-03 3 (assemblies are announced publicly, minutes are not online), GO-04 4, GO-05 3, GO-06 3, GO-07 4 (the equality of every person's hour is the founding principle of the movement), GO-08 3 (that rule is protected by norm rather than by structure). Weighted 3.4.

Resilience
3.0

RE-01 4 (nineteen years including a pandemic that banned the in-person exchange it depends on), RE-02 4 (no central infrastructure to lose), RE-03 4 (any group can restart a time bank from public method), RE-04 5 (one hour for one hour fits in a sentence), RE-05 5 (no technology dependency), RE-06 4 (inflation and bank runs cannot touch an hours ledger), RE-07 2 (volunteers, dues and occasional municipal support), RE-08 3 (hours are timeless, but the exchange needs people in the same place), RE-09 1 (an AI agent cannot deliver an hour of company). Weighted 3.3.

Inclusivity
4.0

IN-01 3 (open to anyone who can reach a local bank), IN-02 5 (a token membership fee), IN-03 5 (it serves people with time and no money, which is the point), IN-04 5 (no seigniorage exists, every hour goes to a member), IN-05 5 (the founding rule is that a musician's hour and a cleaner's hour are worth the same), IN-06 4 (a name and a contact, no documents), IN-07 5 (hours earn nothing by sitting still). Weighted 4.5.
