We\u2019re going to try to either do a currency swap or issue debt. And also in rupees.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rousseff said lending in local currency would allow borrowers in member countries to avoid exchange rate risk and variations in US interest rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLocal currencies are not alternatives to the dollar,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re alternatives to a system. So far the system has been unipolar\u2009.\u2009.\u2009.\u2009it\u2019s going to be substituted by a more multipolar system.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She said the bank has also tried to distinguish itself from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) by not setting lists of political conditions on loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe repudiate any kind of conditionality,\u201d Rousseff said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOften a loan is given upon the condition that certain policies are carried out. We don\u2019t do that. We respect the policies of each country.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vice President Kashim Shettima is currently representing President Bola Tinubu at the 15th BRICS summit in South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The conference, which commenced in Johannesburg on August 22, will focus on issues of trade and investment facilitation, sustainable development, innovation, and global governance reform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nigeria is not a member of the BRICS club.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New Development Bank (NDB), better known as the BRICS Development Bank, has announced plans to begin lending in South African and Brazilian currencies in order to reduce reliance on the US dollar.
