According to the latest report from JP Morgan, BRICS is successful in initiating the de-dollarization agenda in all financial transactions.

Local currencies have been increasingly used for energy transactions in the commodities space in the last two years.

The global investment bank JP Morgan also wrote that new payment systems that facilitate cross-border transactions are settling trade without the US dollar. The development is undermining the US dollar’s clout while BRICS is benefiting from the change in payment systems.

“The narrative that the US dollar’s reserve currency status is being eroded has gained momentum as the world is dividing into trading blocs (BRICS) in the aftermath of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,” said Joyce Chang, Chair of Global Research at JP Morgan. Central banks of developing countries are also diversifying their reserves by including gold and other local currencies.

However, the other global factors show that the US dollar dominance remains well-enriched, wrote the bank. JP Morgan summed up its report that the BRICS de-dollarization agenda could “take decades” to reap fruits and the US dollar will be the de facto currency for many more years. “The factors that support US dollar dominance remain well-entrenched, and meaningful de-dollarization will likely take decades,” read the report.
