The alliance of BRICS nations will design a payment gateway mark and improve the role of BRICS in the international monetary system.  

A report by Tass highlights that the BRICS group plans to develop a payment system based on blockchain and digital technologies. 

BRICS Group comprises Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. The constant advancement of blockchain technology has created dozens of opportunities for the traditional banking system.   

Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov, the assistant to the President of Russia for Foreign Policy, noted while talking to Tass, “ We believe that creating an independent BRICS payment system is an important goal for the future, which would be based on state-of-the-art tools such as digital technologies and blockchain. The main thing is to make sure it is convenient for governments, common people, and businesses, as well as cost-effective and free of politics.” 

The motive for developing a payment system is to make the role of BRICS more valuable in international monetary policy. However, a group of nations is working hard to reduce its reliance on the United States and find a way to de-dollarize. 

Ushakov further adds, “ Work will continue to develop the Contingent Reserve Arrangement, primarily regarding the use of currencies different from the US dollar.” 

Earlier this week, Tass published a report noting that the Finance Ministry of Russia, BRICS, and the Bank of Russia partners. The partnership aims to design a promising and convenient payment gateway to improve the global monetary system.
