 <p>Trade between BRICS countries experienced a rapid rise in 2023 after signing new deals and renewing existing partnerships and agreements. The trade deals initiated by BRICS are now putting the alliance on the global map for the sheer scale of the cross-border transactions.</p>
 <p>According to new data from the World Bank, trade between <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a> nations is headed to reach $500 billion in 2024. While the value falls much below the average global trade, <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a>’ numbers are slowly yet steadily rising. The alliance is creating a foundation that could later turn into full-fledged trade agreements strengthening their native economies.</p>

 <p>The important weapon that BRICS is currently hiding under their sleeves is the de-dollarization initiative. The bloc first plans to cement trade agreements and help it grow in the coming few years. Once the stage is set, BRICS could put their de-dollarization initiative to work and begin to settle trade in local currencies.</p>
 <p>The overall idea of <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a> is to eventually cut ties with the US dollar and make local currencies thrive. The larger the trade numbers rise between <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a>, the bigger the threat grows to the US dollar. <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="BRICS" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/brics.html">BRICS</a> members China and Russia are aggressive in their de-dollarization efforts and are taking every step to make it a reality.</p>
