金磚五國擬建立開發銀行
Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa are expected to unveil alternative organizations to the World Bank and International Monetary Fund on Tuesday.
The five emerging economies, known as the BRICS, are meeting at a two-day summit in Fortaleza, Brazil. Their World Bank alternative, tentatively named the New Development Bank, will start with $50 billion -- $10 billion from each member -- to fund poverty relief in developing countries.
Reuters news agency reports the bank is projected to make its first loan in 2016.
The BRICS will also set up a $100 billion fund in contingency reserves, as an alternative to the International Monetary Fund.
China will provide $41 billion for the IMF alternative, with $18 billion each from Brazil, India and Russia, and $5 billion from South Africa.
The location of the new bank's headquarters has not been decided. Shanghai, Moscow, New Delhi and Johannesburg are all reported contenders.預計巴西、俄羅斯、印度、中國和南非星期二將宣佈建立組織，作爲世界銀行和國際貨幣基金組織之外的選擇。
被稱作“金磚國家”的這五個新興經濟體在巴西城市福塔萊薩舉行爲期兩天的峯會。作爲世界銀行之外的選擇，金磚國家擬議建立的銀行暫定名爲“新開發銀行”。新開發銀行的啓動資金爲5百億美元，每個成員國出資1百億美元，爲發展中國家提供濟貧資金。
路透社報道說，新開發銀行預定2016年發放首筆貸款。
金磚國家還將設立一筆1千億美元應急儲備金，作爲國際貨幣基金組織之外的選擇。
中國將爲應急儲備金提供410億美元，巴西、印度和俄羅斯各出180億美元，南非提供50億美元。
新開發銀行的總部所在地尚未確定。據報道，上海、莫斯科、新德里和約翰內斯堡都是競爭者。
