Two countries that can’t use SWIFT establish a transaction system no one else uses, that isn’t SWIFT. Got it.
Somewhat relevant since they form 2 of the 10 BRICS countries and China is often pretty eager to jump onto non-US systems for obvious reasons.
Will be interesting to see if they trust eachother enough with the system. SWIFT is a large robust and proven system. Something new to the market could be engineered to favor one of the parties, this will be a test of trust as well as technology.
Two large economies under Western sanctions establish an alternative that serves as a basis for sanctions avoidance.
Yeah well I’m gonna go make my own international financial messaging system! With blackjack! And hookers!
