The Aporia · China-based Brics bank set for lead role in hunger alliance this year, Brazil says

Brazil's social development minister announced that the New Development Bank, founded by Brics nations and based in Shanghai, plans to launch a fund worth up to $200 million by the end of this year to provide affordable loans for impoverished families in Africa and Latin America. This initiative would be the bank’s first financial contribution to Brazil's Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty, which was sidelined when the United States took over the G20 presidency. The scheme is being designed with four other development lenders, but each institution must still complete its compliance checks before finalizing the agreement.

Story summary

Brazil's social development minister, Wellington Dias, announced that the Brics-founded New Development Bank could launch a fund by the end of the year to provide cheap loans for poor families in Africa and Latin America. This initiative would be the bank’s first financial commitment to Brazil’s Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty, an effort sidelined when the United States took over the G20 presidency after Brazil's summit in November 2024. Dias said there is a high chance of launching a pilot program worth as little as US$200 million by December, pending compliance checks from other development lenders involved. The scheme would help address poverty and hunger issues highlighted during the G20 summit in Rio de Janeiro.
