The Reserve Bank of India reportedly recommended that a proposal to connect central bank digital currencies ( CBDCs) be placed on the agenda for the 2026 BRICS summit in India, aiming to ease cross‑border trade finance and tourism payments among BRICS members including Brazil, Russia, China and South Africa.

The initiative focuses on interoperable technology, governance rules and settlement mechanisms such as bilateral foreign‑exchange swaps, and could reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar while remaining “not aimed at promoting de‑dollarization,” with any rollout subject to member consensus and possible jurisdictional sensitivities.
