John Kiff on 14 Oct 24Russia's Ministry of Finance published a proposal to develop a distributed ledger technology (DLT) based cross-border payment infrastructure that serves the interests of the BRICs countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Iran, Egypt, Ethiopia, and the United Arab Emirates). The BRICS Cross-Border Payment Initiative (BCBP) project is aimed at circumventing the U.S. dollar dominated global financial system, and sanction-proofing member countries. The report was co-authored by the Bank of Russia and Yakov & Partners, as Russia prepares to host leaders for the annual BRICS summit, in Kazan from October 22 to 24. https://minfin.gov.ru/common/upload/press_center/2024/10/BRICS_Research_on_IMFS_20241008.pdf https://pdfupload.io/docs/e1231f66
