Tuesday reached a deal to establish a development bank that would rival
Western-backed institutions, South Africa's finance minister told AFP.
"It's done," minister Pravin Gordhan said after meeting with his
counterparts from Brazil, Russia, India and China.
"We made very good progress, the leaders will announce the details," he
added, just hours before a summit in the South African port city of Durban.
The bank is likely to focus on infrastructure financing, a direct challenge
to seven decades of dominance by the World Bank. |
