BRICS bank should help the poor

By Kevin May (China Daily) Updated: 2014-07-23 07:35

Therefore, the BRICS bank should be an instrument to promote pro-poor policies, food sovereignty and rural infrastructure, create sustainable jobs, improve livelihoods, and reduce the gap between rich and poor and between men and women, within the BRICS countries, as well as in other partner countries where projects will be implemented.

So what needs to be done? First, it is essential that the BRICS bank is operated in a way that puts fighting poverty and inequality at the heart of its mission. Second, the bank must be transparent and accountable both to BRICS citizens - whose money will form the bank's capital - and to people in borrower countries. And third, it needs to institute safeguards that protect and promote the interests of everyone affected by the projects it funds.

Among the five BRICS member states, China has made the largest contribution ($41 billion) to the Currency Reserve Arrangement, with Brazil, Russia and India contributing $18 billion each, and South Africa putting in $5 billion. But China could do more than just contributing to the bank's subscribed capital and the reserve pool. It could also make it work for the poor.

China has lifted more people out of extreme poverty than any other BRICS country (or for that matter any other country in the world) through reforms in rural areas, which include relatively equitable land distribution, complete rescindment of agricultural taxes and investment in infrastructure, supplemented by robust poverty alleviation programs in those areas. Chinese national development banks have a rich experience of making such reforms work, especially in the development of agriculture, rural infrastructure and support to small-scale enterprises. Moreover, already lending more to developing countries than the World Bank, the Export-Import Bank of China requires the offshore projects that it finances to conduct environmental and social impact assessments and respect local people's rights to land and resources.

China has an unprecedented opportunity and responsibility to draw upon these experiences to make the BRICS bank put the interests of the poor right on top of its agenda. It is an opportunity that has to be seized, for the sake of China and for the sake of the people living in poverty throughout the world.
