BRICS Officially Announces Financial System Similar to SWIFT

The BRICS alliance is looking to bypass the Western SWIFT system and replace it with its own financial mechanism. The creation of a new financial messaging system similar to SWIFT will allow BRICS to reshape the global trade landscape.

The majority of cross-border transactions are now settled using SWIFT and cutting ties with the system provides leverage to the nine-member alliance. BRICS can create a new payment system without incorporating the US dollar for transactions.
