Policy Brief #54 / 2024
BRICS has successfully fulfilled its role as an international negotiating platform. For over a decade of its existence, member states have made hundreds of decisions on key issues on the agenda. The most general list of issues discussed within the framework of the association includes dozens of topics ranging from macroeconomic policy to countering extremism and terrorism, as well as the development of ICT and digital economy.
Numerous multilateral cooperation mechanisms have been created within the BRICS framework, the New BRICS Development Bank has been established and is operating, cooperation in the field of security and humanitarian exchanges is also developing.
Dozens of applications to join the BRICS prove the demand for the organization association and the international agenda it promotes.
Radical BRICS membership enlargement is a stress test for any international institution, fraught with the possible loss of its established identity and internal synergies, which is especially important in the joint promotion of multilateral initiatives. This study seeks to answer the question of what opportunities and challenges the BRICS enlargement may arise, as well as unlock BRICS potential in managing the development of the digital economy.
