BRICS Nations Prepare World Banking Revolution

RICS member-states are preparing a world banking revolution. They are planning to nominate an alternative candidate for the post of the Chairman of the World Bank for the first time in history. BRICS also demands redistribution of quotas in the International Monetary Fund in the near future and intends to study India’s initiative on creating a South-South Bank.

Representatives of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa proposed a reform of the world financial system at their meeting in Mexico City which took place during the conference of G20 finance ministers and heads of central banks.

BRICS financiers are annoyed with the private rule that the head of the World Bank is always a representative of the US. They believe that candidates should be assessed based on their merits and not citizenship. BRICS member-states are convinced that it is essential to create competition for the US candidate, either from a BRICS country or from Europe. It has been decided to prepare a declaration on a coordinated position on this subject in the next two weeks. Candidates for the post of the head of the World Bank should be determined by the 23rd of March.

On the 29th of March BRICS leaders are expected to launch the mechanism of coordinating opinions on India’s proposal to create a South-South Bank. It is to become a support institution for countries with developing markets. BRICS member-states will be playing the main role in it, according to the quotas of votes. In this context they will have to assume serious financial responsibilities. The project looks promising but needs detailed studying, President of the Russian Financial Corporation Andrey Nechayev says.

“There are a lot of unanswered questions at the moment. Who is going to provide capitals for this bank? Who will be able to get money from it? There may be a lot more of those who want to take a loan than those willing to give loans. The new institution meets the requirements of world development. BRICS member-states need investments and not only cash but new technologies, methods of corporate management and innovations. At present it is not quite clear how this bank, if it ever opens, will help to solve this problem.”

And on the day that it is finally announced, as the ultimate FUCK YOU to the West, what happens? A plane accident.

But no, governments that routinely send thousands of people to their ultimate death would definitely look at some people on a plane as too precious to be sacrificed for their cause.

Wake up people. There is no proof of these two things being linked, obviously, but to deny the possibility is to deny how governments- especially the one that just got the biggest disrespect possible in the terms of money and control- have done, well, about yearly for a long time.

To deny this is a likely response is horribly naive. A total disregard for history and a total sap job of analysis.

exciting stuff. People fear this will weaken the dollar but it will actually raise the currency value in participating countries, increase industry and demand in participating countries. The only issue is the increased interest that will be charged to the US for borrowing because there will be competition. Guess the US gov needs to figure out how to pay the bills without a credit card pretty quick.
