DMPQ-What is new development bank? Also mention the main objectives of the bank.

At the fourth BRICS Summit in New Delhi (2012), the leaders of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa considered the possibility of setting up a new Development Bank  to mobilize resources for infrastructure and sustainable development projects in BRICS  and other emerging economies, as well as in developing countries. They directed Finance  Ministers to examine the feasibility and viability of this initiative, to set up a joint working  group for further study, and to report back by the next Summit in 2013.

Following the report from the Finance Ministers at the fifth BRICS summit in Durban  (2013), the leaders agreed on the feasibility of establishing the New Development Bank  and made the decision to do so. It was also agreed that the initial contribution to the Bank  should be substantial and sufficient for it to be effective in financing infrastructure. NDB Headquarter is in Shanghai, China.

The Bank will also provide technical assistance for projects to be supported by the  NDB and engage in information, cultural and personnel exchanges with the purpose of  contributing to the achievement of environmental and social sustainability.

The main objectives of NDB operations are:

  • Fostering development of member countries
  • Supporting economic growth
  • Promoting competitiveness and facilitating job creation
  • Building a knowledge sharing platform among developing countries
