What's BRICS currency?
BRICS currency is a term that
refers to the idea of creating a joint currency for the BRICS countries, which
are Brazil, Russia, India, China and South
Africa. These countries are major developing economies that have been seeking
to reduce their reliance on the U.S. dollar for international trade and finance.
The idea of a BRICS currency has been
discussed for over a decade, but it has not become a reality yet. There are many challenges and obstacles to creating a new
currency that can compete with the dollar, such as political differences,
economic disparities, legal issues and technical difficulties.
According to some reports, Russia has confirmed that the
BRICS countries will introduce a new trading currency backed by gold at the
upcoming summit in South Africa in August 2023. However, this has
not been officially announced or verified by other BRICS members. The South
African ambassador to BRICS has denied that there is any talk of a BRICS
currency on the agenda.
