 <p><a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a> will combinedly decide the number of sectors in which local currencies will be put to use for international transactions. The move will strengthen local economies giving their respective native currencies a boost in the foreign exchange markets.</p> 
 <p>Settling trade within the bloc by ditching the U.S. dollar will make businesses boom in the BRICS countries. The usage of local currencies within the BRICS nations will be faster, smoother, and more cost-effective than the U.S. dollar.</p>
