Abstract
This paper introduces new features of the GAMS modeling language which have been developed for solving nonlinear complementarity problems. T he paper defines the 'mixed complementarity problem' (MCP) and its var ious manifestations. Complementarity formulations for three economic m odels are developed, and computational benchmarks are presented for tw o large-scale MCP solvers. Finally, procedures for local sensitivity a nalysis are described.
