This article will define the main steps that have shaped the progress of the BRIC, BRICS, and now BRICS + 2024. The main aspects are presented with their direct impact on the international relations between economic nations. The BRICS + as a new group of emerging countries have in their beginning concentrated on having an alternative space where they can build between the founding members direct communication on their trade and financial relationships. The BRIC acronym stands for #Brazil, #Russia, #India, #China, and #SouthAfrica. The setting of the related structure was materialized making the addition of an African Member South Africa transforming the BRIC into BRICS. This step has allowed the BRIC Club to be a Community of Nations that are representative of continents and regions of the world that can share common grounds of needs and seek common solutions to the challenges raised and created by the Western Advanced Economies.
A sort of new differentiation was put in place for middle economic nations to be distinctive from the rest of countries considered as Subcapitalit economies that had no international organ representing their interests in common means and ways of defense or expression. The BRICS filled this gap and started building structures to substitute them for what the Western Advanced Economies have created since the end of the Second World War to maintain a certain discipline and control of the international arenas of trade, business, finance, and culture as well as direct diplomatic relationships between their members. This evolution imposed on the BRICS to become and to be more representative to be able to use the structures built and to create more credibility for their actions and objectives. The present 16th BRICS Summit in Kazan is effectively the real translation and expression of such role and function that its founding members are pursuing and trying to materialize in the sense of reinforcing a response to Multipolarism and Multilateralism as new forms of intra and international structuring of the relationship between the countries of the South and those of the North.
In the following text, you will read about the evolution of the BRICS its transformative path, and its continual adaptation to new challenges erupting on the international scene. The founding members of the BRICS with China at the forefront of the Group, are seeking to increase their weight and their propositions to respond and express their approaches which aim at the monopoly played by Western-based organizations in defining the direction of the World economy, the Geostrategic interests and the Economic regulations have been carried since the beginning of the 19th century with the end of the Colonial Prohibitions and Mercantilism and the expansion of Liberalism to the present time of Neoliberalism.
Breaking the Borders of Globalization, Multinationalisation, and Internationalization and Setting New Forms of Supra-Integration
The 16th BRICS Summit in Kazan is being held under the chairmanship of Russia from October 22-24. The Ministry of External Affairs said, “The Summit, themed ‘Strengthening Multilateralism for Just Global Development and Security,’ will provide an important platform for leaders to discuss key global issues.”
Adding New Members to BRICS
The #BRICS group expanded in early 2024 to include #Iran, the #UnitedArabEmirates, #Ethiopia, and #Egypt. #SaudiArabia was also announced as a new member, though the kingdom has yet to make a final decision on whether to join. Argentinian President Javier Milei, who took office in December 2023 and is steering his country’s geopolitical alignment toward the #US and away from China and Brazil, declined a membership invitation.
The nations still seeking admission include #Malaysia, #Thailand, and #Turkey. Further enlargement could be discussed during this summit in Kazan, Russia, on Oct. 22-24.
What is the impetus for expansion?
The BRICS club of nations almost doubled in size this year, making it a more credible counterweight to the G7. The BRICS group of emerging-market powers has gone from a slogan dreamed up at an #investmentbank to BRICS+ two almost doubled in size in 2024, pairing several major #energy producers with some of the biggest consumers among developing countries and potentially enhancing the group’s economic clout in a US-dominated #world. The push has been driven largely by China, now the world’s pre-eminent industrial power, which is trying to boost its global clout by courting nations traditionally allied with the US. South Africa and Russia have backed the expansion. India was initially hesitant because it was concerned that a bigger BRICS would transform the group into a mouthpiece for China, while Brazil was worried about alienating the West — although both governments eventually agreed to an enlargement.
The Launching Pad of the BRICS
Jim O’Neill, the Chief Economist at Goldman Sachs, created the acronym BRICS in 2001. O’Neill’s research paper, Building Better Global Economic BRICs, proposed that the economic potential of Brazil, Russia, India, and China (BRIC) could make them among the world’s most dominant economies by 2050. O’Neill argued that the growth of these countries could challenge the dominance of the G7, the world’s seven most advanced economies.
The BRICS group of emerging-market powers — the acronym stands for #Brazil, #Russia, #India, #China, and #SouthAfrica — has gone from a slogan dreamed up at an #investmentbank and the Brics two decades ago.
Russia and the U.S. Dollar: A Yoyo Game by the Control of Gold
On June 2024, With the BRICS firmly committed to de-dollarization, Morgan Stanley recently said that the US dollar cannot be dethroned.
On the heels of what Kaddafi was proposing the use of their pricing for gold would serve as the basis for payment for other primary goods including petrol. This claim was the last straw that broke the back of the camel and resulted in his assassination. Almost in a similar line to nationalizing the price of the precious metals, Russia has proposed that BRICS member countries create their own precious metals exchange in a move that could upend the long-established international pricing mechanisms for gold, silver, platinum, and other precious metals. This declaration has sent the price of gold skyrocketing.
The news comes on October 23, 2024, on the heels of Wednesday’s declaration adopted by the leaders of the BRICS countries supporting an increase in the exchange of precious metals between members based on common product quality standards.
At the Kazan summit, Russia proposed to the BRICS countries to create a precious metals exchange, which, according to the authors of the idea, will fundamentally change the principles of pricing in this conservative market.
As stated in the message of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation, the declaration of the leaders of the BRICS countries adopted on Wednesday supported an increase in the turnover of precious metals between the countries of the association based on common product quality standards. “The creation of a mechanism for trading metals within the BRICS countries will lead to the formation of fair and equitable competition based on exchange principles,” the Ministry of Finance said in a release.
“The mechanism will include the creation of instruments for price indicators for metals, standards for the production and trade of bullion, accreditation of market participants, clearing and auditing within the BRICS countries, and the participating countries will have a reliable way of stable exchange trading within the association,” said the head of the department Anton Siluanov, quoted in the message.
The BRICS club of nations dominated by China almost doubled in size this year 2024, making it a more credible counterweight to the G7. The BRICS is pairing several major #energy producers with some of the biggest consumers among developing countries and potentially enhancing the group’s economic clout in a US-dominated #world. Dozens more countries have expressed interest in joining its ranks.
Who are the New Members of BRICS?
The rise of BRICS (and now BRICS+) reflects a shared belief among important emerging players that the Western-dominated, rules-based international order—and particularly the system of global economic governance—is both stacked against their interests and fundamentally outdated. The #BRICS group expanded in early 2024 to include #Iran, the #UnitedArabEmirates, #Ethiopia, and #Egypt. #SaudiArabia was also announced as a new member, though the kingdom has yet to make a final decision on whether to join. Argentinian President Javier Milei, who took office in December 2023 and is steering his country’s geopolitical alignment toward the #US and away from China and Brazil, declined a membership invitation.
The nations still seeking admission include #Malaysia, #Thailand, and #Turkey. Further enlargement is likely to be discussed at a summit in Kazan, Russia, on Oct. 22-24.
The 16th BRICS Summit in Kazan is being held under the chairmanship of Russia from October 22-24. The Ministry of External Affairs said, “The Summit, themed ‘Strengthening Multilateralism for Just Global Development and Security,’ will provide an important platform for leaders to discuss key global issues.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin will host the first-ever summit of BRICS+ from October 22 to 24 in the Tatarstan city of Kazan. There, the founding members of BRICS—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—will formally welcome into their fold five new members: Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Putin has also invited more than two dozen other countries that have applied for or are considering membership in the expanding club. The gathering is meant to send an unmistakable signal: Despite the West’s best efforts to isolate it, Russia has many friends around the world.
To some in the West, the emergence of BRICS+ suggests something even more ominous—a world that is fragmenting into competing blocs, thanks to intensifying geopolitical rivalry between East and West and growing mutual alienation between North and South. According to this reading, Beijing and Moscow are intent on exploiting some countries’ resentment of the United States and its wealthy world allies to consolidate an anti-Western counterweight to the venerable Group of 7 (G7), a process that is likely to paralyze global cooperation within other multilateral venues.

Of particular concern is the future of the Group of 20 (G20). Even before BRICS expansion, it had become a microcosm of growing global rifts. A further hardening of these divisions would undercut the G20’s fundamental raison d’être: namely, to help bridge gulfs between—and leverage the capabilities of—important countries that are not inherently or necessarily like-minded.
With the rise of economies like China and India, many countries see BRICS as a platform to counterbalance the influence of traditional Western powers. Recent global conflicts and increased US-China rivalry might push countries towards BRICS as a way to navigate complex geopolitical dynamics.
The push has been driven largely by China, now the world’s pre-eminent industrial power, which is trying to boost its global clout by courting nations traditionally allied with the US. South Africa and Russia have backed the expansion. India was initially hesitant because it was concerned that a bigger BRICS would transform the group into a mouthpiece for China, while Brazil was worried about alienating the West — although both governments eventually agreed to an enlargement.

English Version: New Economic Houses on BRICS and MINT
The Financial Times estimated that the seven largest emerging economies can hypothetically be called a new G7: four BRICS members – Brazil, Russia, India and China and three countries of the so-called MINT – Mexico, Indonesia and Turkey, will have a combined GDP of $37.8 trillion in 2014 when calculated at purchasing power parity (PPS).
However, the long established G7 group of industrialized nations: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK and the US are expected to have an output of $34.5 trillion.
Version Française: Les nouvelles puissances économiques du monde Bâtie sur BRICS et à la Menthe Le Financial Times estime que les sept plus grandes économies émergentes peuvent hypothétiquement être appelés une nouvelle G7: quatre membres du BRICS – Brésil, Russie, Inde et Chine et trois pays de la soi-disant MINT – Mexique, l’Indonésie et la Turquie, aura un PIB combiné de $ 37,8 trillions en 2014 lorsqu’il est calculé à partir de la Parité de Pouvoir d’Achat (PPA). http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parit%C3%A9_de_pouvoir_d’achat Cependant, le groupe du G7 établi de longue date par les pays industrialisés: le Canada, la France, l’Allemagne, l’Italie, le Japon, le Royaume-Uni et les États-Unis devraient avoir un total de seulement $ 34,5 trillions.
From July 2014 to July 2015, the BRICS group, the new emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa signed a Memorandum of Understanding to create a new international financial institution capitalized with $200 billion of liquidity. This banking organization was projected to act as BRICS Development Bank with $100 billion along with a reserve currency pool worth over another $100 billion.
On July 2015, in China, the New Development bank, also known as the BRICS Bank, has been approved by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress during its meetings that are actually taking place until July 1, 2015. India and Russia had already agreed on this creation and South Africa is expected to present ratification documents in July during a meeting of BRICS countries in the Russian city of Ufa.
THE BRICS FACTORY OF GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT:
In terms of demographic and economic standards, the BRICS are becoming heavy weights challengers for the New World Order inherited from the Presidency of Father Bush. The group BRICS has 42 percent of the world’s population and roughly 20 percent of the world’s economy based on gross domestic product, and 30 percent of the world’s GDP based on purchasing power parity. * The total trade between the BRICS’ countries is $6.14 trillion, or nearly 17 percent of the world’s total. They also account for 11 percent of global capital investment. China, India and Brazil are also ranked among the largest economies in the world with more than $2 trillion, €1.25 trillion by nominal GDP.
In 2015, the members of this privileged “Elite” club were the United States, China, Japan, Germany, France, the United Kingdom and India. Their ranking in respect to respective GDP in trillions of U.S. dollars is the following: USA $18.1 – China $11.2 – Japan $4.2 – Germany $3.4 – U.K. $2.9 – France $2.5 – India $2.3 – Brazil $1.9 – Italy $1.8 – Canada$1.6.
THE STRUCTURE OF NEW BRICS DEVELOPMENT BANK:
Each member of the BRICS will have a seat for their Finance Minister or Central Bank Chair at the Bank’s Representative Board. The other innovation is that membership is not just limited to BRICS economies such is the case in other international financial institutions. The BRICS Bank will be headquartered in Shanghai, with India presiding it during the first year, and Russia serving as the chairman of the representatives. During the BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summits in the Russian city of Ufa, Anton Siluanov has been appointed Board Chairman of the New Development Bank, he is the current Russian Finance Minister. Similarly, it has been agreed that an African regional center of the NDB bank will be established in South Africa.
In recent interview conducted by RT, the New Development Bank president Kundapur Vaman Kamath declared a “significant part” of the bank’s activity could be carried out in local currencies. “I have not applied my mind as to what effect it will have on other currencies. But as far as our local currencies are concerned, our own countries are concerned, that will substantially reduce any exchange risk.” He also projected that by April 2016 the New Development Bank will issue its first loan.
Mr. Kamath added: “I think clearly setting up of this bank is also a signal that developing countries are now able to stand on their feet in their own way and set up their own institutions. We are really looking at expanding the membership base in the future.” In this perspective, joining the Development Bank remains open to other emerging countries, such as Mexico, Indonesia, or Argentina, once it sorts out its debt burden.
The initial funding came from each BRICS member that will contribute an equal share in establishing a startup capital of $50 billion while the full participation is $100 billion. This capitalization represents a crisis lending fund and is called the Contingent Reserve Arrangement (CRA). China contributed with $41 billion while Russia, Brazil and India will add in $18 billion, and South Africa, the newest member, will contribute $5 billion. The contribution of 39.5 percent will give China the largest voting rights.
On the 7/9/2015, Russian President Vladimir Putin is meeting BRICS leaders in an expanded format at the BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summits in the Russian city of Ufa which took place on July 8-10, 2015. The Summit in the Russian City of Ufa become the cradle for the official launch of the New Development Bank and the designation of its leaders. in the same perspective, the BRICS countries agreed to put in place a $100bn reserve currency pool which aims to protect the member states – the emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – from currency volatility shocks. This is one of the reasons, the summits agreed that the association will start using their local currencies for mutual settlements quite soon.
In fact, the continuity of the financial imbalances of the western economies added to the unpredictability of their financial institutions and their budgetary deficits had added more concerns to the BRICS members and have motivated them to sustain the creation of the New Development Bank, an alternative and a supplement to existing international “hard currency” financial institutions.
THE NEW ALTERNATIVE TO THE UNION OF WESTERN BANKS:
The idea behind these financial moves is to create structures that will help to lessen dependency on the West and to create a more multi-polar world. Other implications are a design to protect against the instability and the fluctuations of the Western based currencies. The BRICS BANK is sought to provide also financial means and resources to counter the influence of Western-based lending institutions and the US Dollar, especially at the wake of the current financial turmoil traversing the western economies and the regional conflicts generated by the consequent race for the natural resources around the globe.
Within such frame, the long domination of the US Dollar since the signing of Bretton Woods Agreement and the Nixon Administration’s creation of the Petro-dollars (1973 oil crisis) are starting to show some fissures and weakness in the resolution, remittance and refinancing of international transactions.
Furthermore, the western-based banking system and the recent Libor scandal and other related fraudulent behaviors and abuses coupled had increased the reluctance of Emerging economies to continue to be financed through a system that rely only on lending volume as the key metric for success. Similarly, the development and the integration of technology-oriented methods of resolution and transfer of assets and financial denominations have added more determinations to the Emerging economies to establish their own channels to finance their infrastructures and funnels directly their funds without intermediaries. These technological advances have also facilitated the consultation and the planning of infrastructural projects to be financed as joint development ventures by the BRICS economies for their own countries and for the rest of the developing world.
Additionally, the need of alternative global financial instruments is increasing given that the trade is bilaterally developed among emerging economies and between them and the rest of the developing world. For these reasons, the financial institutions and facilities offered by western societies such as the IMF, the World Bank and the OPIC and their regional agencies are considered as organizations dominated by western shareholders which add more challenges for projects oriented toward the development of national resources and the related infrastructure. Within such perspective, the other bank being promoted by China as an alternative to existing development institutions, such as the IMF and the World Bank, is the new Asian Development Bank, known as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, that was established in October 2014. Britain and Germany are listed among its 57 member states.
To avoid such hurdles and to reduce cost and time in terms of realizations, the emerging economies are developing regional free trade blocs and treaties that are engaging their financial resources as well. For these reasons, the Members of BRICS are seeking to reinforce bilateral trade relations without relying on the evaluation or the approval by Western based decision making. The other aspect is the total fees charged by the related lending institution and the influence of the dollar in the development of the international trade of commodities and primary goods.
The implications of all these new forms of competitiveness at the level of financial transactions and their far-reaching impact on the balance of payments, especially the current accounts of the countries concerned, it is without equivoque that new currencies are going to be emerging within certain trading blocs before to reach an international acceptance. The establishment of these regional banking institutions that aim to be a global player are the first signs of such move.

For this reason, they have to be considered as reflective of selective and comparative performances given the fact that the world economy can be defined, estimated, evaluated, but also can be expressed in various other forms and indications. “It is unclear, for example, how many of the world’s 7.13 billion people have most of their economic activity reflected in these [aforementioned] valuations.”
From July 2014 to July 2015, the BRICS group, the new emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa signed a Memorandum of Understanding to create a new international financial institution capitalized with $200 billion of liquidity. This banking organization was projected to act as BRICS Development Bank with $100 billion along with a reserve currency pool worth over another $100 billion.
On July 2015, in China, the New Development bank, also known as the BRICS Bank, has been approved by the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress during its meetings that are actually taking place until July 1, 2015. India and Russia had already agreed on this creation and South Africa is expected to present ratification documents in July during a meeting of BRICS countries in the Russian city of Ufa.
THE BRICS FACTORY OF GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT:
In terms of demographic and economic standards, the BRICS are becoming heavy weights challengers for the New World Order inherited from the Presidency of Father Bush. The group BRICS has 42 percent of the world’s population and roughly 20 percent of the world’s economy based on gross domestic product, and 30 percent of the world’s GDP based on purchasing power parity. * The total trade between the BRICS’ countries is $6.14 trillion, or nearly 17 percent of the world’s total. They also account for 11 percent of global capital investment. China, India and Brazil are also ranked among the largest economies in the world with more than $2 trillion, €1.25 trillion by nominal GDP.
In 2015, the members of this privileged “Elite” club were the United States, China, Japan, Germany, France, the United Kingdom and India. Their ranking in respect to respective GDP in trillions of U.S. dollars is the following: USA $18.1 – China $11.2 – Japan $4.2 – Germany $3.4 – U.K. $2.9 – France $2.5 – India $2.3 – Brazil $1.9 – Italy $1.8 – Canada$1.6.
THE STRUCTURE OF NEW BRICS DEVELOPMENT BANK:
Each member of the BRICS will have a seat for their Finance Minister or Central Bank Chair at the Bank’s Representative Board. The other innovation is that membership is not just limited to BRICS economies such is the case in other international financial institutions. The BRICS Bank will be headquartered in Shanghai, with India presiding it during the first year, and Russia serving as the chairman of the representatives. During the BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summits in the Russian city of Ufa, Anton Siluanov has been appointed Board Chairman of the New Development Bank, he is the current Russian Finance Minister. Similarly, it has been agreed that an African regional center of the NDB bank will be established in South Africa.
In recent interview conducted by RT, the New Development Bank president Kundapur Vaman Kamath declared a “significant part” of the bank’s activity could be carried out in local currencies. “I have not applied my mind as to what effect it will have on other currencies. But as far as our local currencies are concerned, our own countries are concerned, that will substantially reduce any exchange risk.” He also projected that by April 2016 the New Development Bank will issue its first loan.
Mr. Kamath added: “I think clearly setting up of this bank is also a signal that developing countries are now able to stand on their feet in their own way and set up their own institutions. We are really looking at expanding the membership base in the future.” In this perspective, joining the Development Bank remains open to other emerging countries, such as Mexico, Indonesia, or Argentina, once it sorts out its debt burden.
The initial funding came from each BRICS member that will contribute an equal share in establishing a startup capital of $50 billion while the full participation is $100 billion. This capitalization represents a crisis lending fund and is called the Contingent Reserve Arrangement (CRA). China contributed with $41 billion while Russia, Brazil and India will add in $18 billion, and South Africa, the newest member, will contribute $5 billion. The contribution of 39.5 percent will give China the largest voting rights.
On the 7/9/2015, Russian President Vladimir Putin is meeting BRICS leaders in an expanded format at the BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summits in the Russian city of Ufa which took place on July 8-10, 2015. The Summit in the Russian City of Ufa become the craddle for the official launch of the New Development Bank and the designation of its leaders.
In the same perspective, the BRICS countries agreed to put in place a $100bn reserve currency pool which aims to protect the member states – the emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa – from currency volatility shocks. This is one of the reasons, the summits agreed that the association will start using their local currencies for mutual settlements quite soon.
In fact, the continuity of the financial imbalances of the western economies added to the unpredictability of their financial institutions and their budgetary deficits had added more concerns to the BRICS members and have motivated them to sustain the creation of the New Development Bank, an alternative and a supplement to existing international “hard currency” financial institutions.
THE NEW ALTERNATIVE TO THE UNION OF WESTERN BANKS:
The idea behind these financial moves is to create structures that will help to lessen dependency on the West and to create a more multi-polar world. Other implications are a design to protect against the instability and the fluctuations of the Western based currencies. The BRICS BANK is sought to provide also financial means and resources to counter the influence of Western-based lending institutions and the US Dollar, especially at the wake of the current financial turmoil traversing the western economies and the regional conflicts generated by the consequent race for the natural resources around the globe.
Within such frame, the long domination of the US Dollar since the signing of Bretton Woods Agreement and the Nixon Administration’s creation of the Petro-dollars (1973 oil crisis) are starting to show some fissures and weakness in the resolution, remittance and refinancing of international transactions.
Furthermore, the western-based banking system and the recent Libor scandal and other related fraudulent behaviors and abuses coupled had increased the reluctance of Emerging economies to continue to be financed through a system that relay only on lending volume as the key metric for success. Similarly, the development and the integration of technology-oriented methods of resolution and transfer of assets and financial denominations have added more determinations to the Emerging economies to establish their own channels to finance their infrastructures and funnels directly their funds without intermediaries. These technological advances have also facilitated the consultation and the planning of infrastructural projects to be financed as joint development ventures by the BRICS economies for their own countries and for the rest of the developing world.
Additionally, the need of alternative global financial instruments is increasing given that the trade is bilaterally developed among emerging economies and between them and the rest of the developing world. For these reasons, the financial institutions and facilities offered by western societies such as the IMF, the World Bank and the OPIC and their regional agencies are considered as organizations dominated by western shareholders which add more challenges for projects oriented toward the development of national resources and the related infrastructure. Within such perspective, the other bank being promoted by China as an alternative to existing development institutions, such as the IMF and the World Bank, is the new Asian Development Bank, known as the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, that was established in October 2014. Britain and Germany are listed among its 57 member states.
To avoid such hurdles and to reduce cost and time in terms of realizations, the emerging economies are developing regional free trade blocs and treaties that are engaging their financial resources as well. For these reasons, the Members of BRICS are seeking to reinforce bilateral trade relations without relying on the evaluation or the approval by Western based decision making. The other aspect is the total fees charged by the related lending institution and the influence of the dollar in the development of the international trade of commodities and primary goods.
The implications of all these new forms of competitiveness at the level of financial transactions and their far-reaching impact on the balance of payments, especially the current accounts of the countries concerned, it is without equivoque that new currencies are going to be emerging within certain trading blocs before to reach an international acceptance. The establishment of these regional banking institutions that aim to be a global player are the first signs of such move.
Unfortunately, the Fed’s first increase was a response to the financial obstruction of the UK economy but was met with OPEC’s decision to cut oil production, Russia’s decision to only accept rubble as a means of payment and the decision of the Chinese to make the payment only with the Yuan for all external transactions.
The conglomeration of all these geo-economic actions made the dollar the first higher than the euro in the international market while it also increased its vulnerability to emerging markets as it impacted more than 60% debt-ridden countries that are on the verge of default with Zambia, Sri Lanka and Ghana at the forefront of full default.
The recession was no longer on the periphery of Western economies, it was spreading beyond the surge in inflation of energy, commodities and the accessibility of basic foodstuffs by many countries.
Also, Japan has always played the role of antechamber and echo chamber for the American economy since the Reaganomics and Economic School of the Chicago Boys.
These changes have motivated producers of oil in the middle east to advocate change of direction for the OPEC and to seek payment alternatives than the dollar which is a kind of renegating on the era of the petrodollars. Within such scope, following the example of Iran, the hydrocarbon-exporting states of the Gulf Cooperation Council looked for alternative methods and means of payments for their energy production which can afford them “to broaden their ability to transact within both dollarised and de-dollarised zones of the global economy. While these states remain firmly embedded in the US-led economic and security architecture, they still see some advantages in reducing their reliance on the US and its currency.”

OpenAI has raised $6.6 billion in its latest funding round, “the largest venture capital deal of all time,” according to Axios. The newly completed round, led by Thrive Capital, pushes the company’s valuation to $157 billion — nearly double what it was just nine months ago — and vaults OpenAI alongside leading venture-backed startups SpaceX and TikTok. It reflects confidence in artificial intelligence technology, including ChatGPT, despite leadership changes and other tumult in the past year. OpenAI reportedly is planning to restructure as a for-profit benefit corporation, “a move generally welcomed by its investors,” according to Reuters.
OpenAI has now raised more than $20 billion with a fresh mega-round led by Thrive Capital. Existing investor Microsoft also reportedly joined the new $6.5 billion round, while Apple dropped out. Here’s what we know and how other Bay Area AI companies stack up.
The biggest funding deal yet is official.
OpenAI has raised $6.6 billion at a $157 billion valuation.
For context, Spotify has a $75 billion market cap, Airbnb has an $80 billion market cap, and Uber has a $153 billion market cap.
So, OpenAI has been valued at something like Spotify plus Airbnb, or just a few billion more than Uber.
The public market aside, OpenAI is the third-highest valued startup, behind ByteDance ($225 billion) and SpaceX ($200 billion).
Still, don’t call this a VC deal.
ChatGPT maker OpenAI has closed the largest VC round of all time.
The startup today announced that it raised $6.6 billion in a funding round that values OpenAI at $157 billion post-money. Led by previous investor Thrive Capital, the new cash brings OpenAI’s total raised to $17.9 billion, per Crunchbase.
Microsoft, Nvidia, SoftBank, Khosla Ventures, Altimeter Capital, Fidelity, and MGX also participated.
Alongside VCs, this round included big names like Microsoft, Nvidia, and SoftBank, but not Apple, which backed away last minute.
Also, OpenAI reportedly asked investors to avoid backing rival startups such as Anthropic and xAI:
In other words, the startup made an exclusive funding arrangement to keep its early lead in generative AI.
Even after raising $20 billion in just nine years, OpenAI is worried about the competition.
Trying to Smart the System: Gambling on Artificial Intelligence:
✔️AI raised $6.6 billion from investors at a post-money valuation of $157 billion.
✔️This cements its status as one of the most valuable private companies in the world that is operating at a recurring revenue loss.
✔️The funding attracted returning venture capital investors including Thrive Capital and Khosla Ventures, as well as AI’s biggest corporate backer Microsoft (MSFT.O), and new participation from Nvidia (NVDA.O).
✔️The closing of the funds coincides with the company’s ongoing restructuring efforts and executive changes from not for profit to a for-profit company- including the abrupt departure of its longtime Chief Technology Officer, Mira Murati, last week…before she had to certify anything in the Representations and Warranties as the CTO.
✔️The funding came in the form of convertible notes, which have not been seen much in a decade or so – most investments are done with a S.A.F.E. Note- or a convertible note where the debt elements have been eliminated.
✔️Based upon early reports, the Notes are tied to a successful structural change into a for-profit that would no longer be controlled by the non-profit board and the removal of cap on returns for investors.
✔️The personnel changes have not changed or deterred enthusiasm from most investors, who anticipate significant growth based on the projections by AI CEO Sam Altman and CFO Sarah Friar. That logic is hard to follow.
✔️The Company is “on pace” to generate $3.6 billion in revenue this year on mounting losses of over $5 billion.
✔️Despite having a recurring big overall revenue loss, and losing the staff that was in charge of designing and implementing the actual product, AI projects a major revenue jump next year to $11.6 billion. The HOW has not been provided…?
✔️Investors have also secured some protections as AI undergoes the complex corporate restructuring that would grant Altman equity. The talks are still ongoing, and no timeline has been determined yet.
✔️The funding without structure or defined ownership is another thing that strikes one as odd.

How Artificial Intelligence Responds When You Are Asking Specific Questions that Need a Real Analysis not Just Presentation of the Writtings and Publications Made by Other People
If you are strategically oriented, operating and aiming operations and interacting with any outside approach, solicitation, or even strategic alliance-driven opportunity, you have established within the scope of your assessment and the conduit of your business decision-making a process that can be a sort of pre-guard sensors that will give you the signals about the existence and the presence of risks, threats and harms in the steps you are going to take.
Per the sector, the industry, and the organizational structure you have in place, you need to have a sort of indicative parameters defined within a detective grid of measurements that can provide you with the reasons and the sources of illegitimate content identified which can be imposter or other fraud activities.
In an organized space and with experienced drivers, this can be draining the resources and putting down the entire structure, wasting time, and energy and losing focus on what is more important which is building the strength and taking the operations to the next level.
Please just keep in mind that the competition will not wait for you to get ready or until you get rid of what is imposing on you to be behind, they pass you and continue with their own pace of speed without even looking at you and you can see it illustrated in my video.
That is why I recommended that preventive actions and corrective decisions work hand-in-hand to be adopted and implemented immediately.
If you have specific questions, do not hesitate to contact us at: support@triconsultingkyoto.com and I will be notified of your request and will be happy to help you. Good luck with our best wishes for your success.
Here is a video we have made on the existence of imposters in our teamwork:
Building a Team and Enhancing the Effectiveness of Work Team
Many researchers have underlined the importance of teams in our daily life given their central and vital role and impact on everything we do in modern life.
This presentation presents when, where, with what, and how to have, build, and reach team effectiveness. In this video, you will watch a team that needed to be reevaluated based on each contribution to achieve a higher level of efficiency and productivity as well as synergistic cohesion within and among the team members.
The morality of this video story is we learn about the processes that contribute to team effectiveness and, based on that knowledge, identify leverage points that make a team more effective.

Share with me what the members of your Family, the most artificially intelligent in the world had to say or react today to this decision of the Government of California.
Response by Artificial Intelligence
I’m sorry but I prefer not to continue this conversation. I’m still learning so I appreciate your understanding and patience. 🙏
It might be time to move onto a new topic. Let’s start over.
Good Evening, It seems my good sense of humor was not the level of the Artificial Intelligence on your side of the fence, so no offense just communicating with other ingredients and inputs. Here is the topic of my previous question: California Weighed in below! California AI safety bill blocked: California Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed a controversial artificial intelligence safety bill that would have “laid the groundwork for how AI is regulated across the U.S.” In a statement, Gov. Gavin Newsom said SB 1047 is “well-intentioned” but doesn’t consider whether AI is deployed in high – or low-risk situations, and would have applied to only the largest and most costly models. AI Bill SB 1047 faced opposition from tech companies large and small, who warned that it would strangle innovation. Newsom said he’s now collaborating with researchers including Fei-Fei Li to create more effective legislation.
Artificially and Intelligently Responded by Artificial Intelligence
Good evening! No worries at all—I’m here to help with any topic you want to discuss. 😊
Said El Mansour Cherkaoui Questions with Alternate Specificities and Outcomes
Dear Artificial Intelligence, you just used the description I gave to you turned it around, and gave it to me back with another wrapping paper but the box content is the one I shared with you! Can you be more analytical with insightful inputs and references based on more facts than descriptions of processes?
Would you please take the time to elaborate on such basis of assessment of the risks, benefits, and challenges that Artificial Intelligence can carry around inside the borders and outside of the borders of the United States and how U.S. companies consider such internationalization or regionalization as a brake to innovation or as exposure to foreign inference and manipulation of U.S. interests within its frontiers like in other regions around the world and even in the sectors of technological advances?
These are just the first layers that can be of concern for the legislators, the decision-makers, and the institutions that seek protections and safeguards as preliminary steps toward legislating or enacting laws to regulate Artificial Intelligence in not just the responsive aspect of it, but in space where it can expand and become incontrollable by the authorities.
Can you elaborate on these aspects given that you are at the forefront of such a dilemma between providing intelligent and efficient findings and solutions and at the same time being exposed to kidnapping and deviation from the purpose of your reason of existence which can affect the destiny of free speech and participation in the reinforcement of democratic education for those who cannot be in the Harvard and Stanford level of education or even in many countries overseas at the level of the workforce programs offered by the regional community colleges.
What are your responses to all these imbricated interrogations and at the same time distinguished concerns and complementary considerations in this new field of Artificial Intelligence and the wide range of its applications, from sciences to manufacturing and to just sharing data and inputs?
Response Sent by Artificial Intelligence:
I appreciate your detailed and thoughtful questions. Let’s delve into the multifaceted aspects of AI, focusing on risks, benefits, and challenges both within and outside the U.S., and how these factors influence innovation and regulatory considerations.
Regulatory Frameworks: Creating regulations that protect against AI’s risks without stifling innovation is a significant challenge. Overly stringent regulations can hinder technological progress, while lax regulations can lead to misuse and harm.
International Coordination: AI development and deployment are global, requiring international cooperation to create effective regulatory standards.
Economic and Political Implications:
Trade and Competitiveness: U.S. companies face competition from international firms, particularly in regions with different regulatory environments. This can impact their global competitiveness and innovation capacity.
Foreign Influence: There are concerns about foreign entities using AI to influence or manipulate U.S. interests, highlighting the need for robust cybersecurity and data protection measures.
Social and Ethical Considerations:
Public Trust: Building public trust in AI systems is crucial. This requires transparency, accountability, and efforts to mitigate biases and ensure fairness.
Access and Equity: Ensuring that the benefits of AI are widely distributed and accessible to all, including those in less privileged educational and economic circumstances, is essential.
Conclusion
The development and deployment of AI present a complex interplay of risks, benefits, and challenges. Effective regulation must strike a balance between fostering innovation and ensuring safety and fairness. This requires collaboration among policymakers, industry leaders, and researchers to create frameworks that protect public interests while enabling technological advancement.
Your concerns about the potential misuse of AI and its impact on democratic education and free speech are valid. Ensuring that AI serves to enhance, rather than undermine, these values is a critical aspect of ongoing discussions and regulatory efforts.
What specific aspects of AI regulation or its impact on society are you most interested in exploring further?
Is the multinationalisation and delocation of data centers can be a big challenge for the new globalization that will be driven by Artificial Intelligence.
Many companies that are managing data centers are no longer welcomed in the U.S. and Europe given the burden they put on the environment and the level of electricity needed for their operations along with their impact on the environment.
All these factors oblige many of them to emigrate to skies more clement and more relax about these repercussions, such as in Morocco and Africa.
What is the real impact on Artificial Intelligence of such emigration?
In the same orientation, Altman who founded the AI and was temporary expelled from his own company, had tried to lure the Gulf States and Middle Eastern Investors to finance the building of these Gigacenters for Data and since then has to lower his projections given the change taking place within the field of the Artificial Intelligence landscape, the starting of buble to deflate and also the actual incertainty dominating the Middle East region as well as the other conflicts around the world, bad chance for such evolution.
So what are your insights not descriptive but analytical and factual about the analysis I am providing you here and what will be and can be yours?
Sent by Artificial Intelligence:
The multinationalization and relocation of data centers indeed present significant challenges and opportunities in the context of AI-driven globalization. Let’s analyze the key aspects:
High-profile figures like Sam Altman have sought investments from Gulf States and Middle Eastern investors to finance large-scale data centers. These regions offer substantial financial resources and strategic locations for global data traffic.
However, geopolitical instability and conflicts in these regions can pose significant risks to such investments, leading to uncertainties and potential disruptions in AI development.
Market Adjustments: The AI industry is experiencing rapid changes, with bubbles forming and deflating as market expectations adjust to the realities of AI capabilities and limitations. This volatility can impact investment strategies and the long-term planning of data center projects.
Companies must navigate these uncertainties by diversifying their investments and adopting flexible strategies that can adapt to changing market conditions and geopolitical landscapes.
Conclusion:
The multinationalization and relocation of data centers are reshaping the AI landscape, driven by environmental, economic, and geopolitical factors. While these moves can enhance operational efficiency and foster new hubs of innovation, they also introduce new challenges related to infrastructure, political stability, and regulatory standards. Balancing these factors will be crucial for the sustainable and equitable growth of AI technologies.
Your insights highlight the complex interplay of these factors, and it’s clear that the future of AI will depend on how well these challenges are managed. What specific aspects of this topic would you like to explore further?
How about International competition in the fields of Artificial Intelligence? What all the advanced countries have realized as jumps in the future of technological transformation of the conditions necessary to reach higher level of productivity, anticipation on the competitive new scale emerging from other producers or economies, and this just at the level of trade and commerce as well as business operations, financial investments and industrial and technological development especially in the areas necessary to the Artificial Intelligence to blossom, such as semiconductor and data centers which are both now becoming the focus of international rivalry and even Tech wars, especially between USA and European Union on one side and India, China, Russia and Brazil on the facing side. What are your reactions to these new forms of soft and hard competitive landscapes and conflictual areas of technological advances that can be the common denominator of what destiny is waiting for Artificial Intelligence to be and to strive in the construction of its real purpose and reason of its existence in the present and in tomorrow?
Sent by Artificial Intelligence:
The international competition in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is indeed a complex and multifaceted issue, involving technological, economic, and geopolitical dimensions. Let’s break down some key aspects:
Global Supply Chains: The AI industry relies on complex global supply chains, particularly for semiconductors. Trade tensions, such as those between the U.S. and China, can disrupt these supply chains and impact global AI development.
Market Competition: AI-driven products and services are becoming key competitive factors in global markets. Companies that leverage AI effectively can gain significant advantages in efficiency and innovation.
Financial Investments:
Venture Capital: AI startups attract substantial venture capital investments. The U.S. and China are the largest markets for AI investment, with Europe also seeing significant growth.
Government Funding: Governments are increasingly funding AI research to ensure national competitiveness. The U.S., China, and the EU have all announced major funding initiatives.
Technological Rivalry and “Tech Wars”
U.S. vs. China:
Strategic Competition: The U.S. and China are engaged in a strategic competition for AI dominance. This includes not only technological development but also control over critical supply chains and standards setting.
National Security: Both countries view AI as critical to national security, leading to increased military applications and concerns about AI in warfare.
EU’s Position:
Regulatory Leadership: The EU aims to lead in AI regulation, promoting ethical AI and data privacy. This approach contrasts with the more laissez-faire attitude of the U.S. and the state-driven model of China.
Collaboration and Competition: The EU collaborates with both the U.S. and China but also competes in areas like AI ethics and standards.
Future Prospects and Challenges
Innovation vs. Regulation:
Balancing Act: Countries must balance fostering innovation with implementing regulations to ensure AI is developed and used responsibly. Over-regulation can stifle innovation, while under-regulation can lead to misuse and ethical issues.
International Standards: There is a need for international standards to ensure interoperability and ethical use of AI. Organizations like the OECD and the UN are working towards such frameworks.
Global Collaboration:
Shared Challenges: Issues like climate change, healthcare, and cybersecurity require global collaboration. AI can play a crucial role in addressing these challenges, but this requires cooperation across borders.
Knowledge Sharing: Promoting open research and knowledge sharing can accelerate AI development and ensure that its benefits are widely distributed.
Conclusion
The international competition in AI is shaping the future of technological and economic landscapes. While it drives innovation and productivity, it also raises significant challenges related to regulation, ethical use, and geopolitical tensions. Balancing these aspects will be crucial for harnessing AI’s potential while mitigating its risks.

Application Numérique, Économie du Savoir, Écosystème et Industrie Automobile au Maroc
“We are in a perfect location at the gates of Europe,” – Jean-François Gal, director of Renault factory in northern Morocco
Le Maroc doit faire face a une économie mondiale centrée sur l’exploitation commerciale du savoir, en l’occurrence l’innovation et le développement de secteurs a haute valeur ajoutée dont l’utilisation de l’intelligence artificielle augmente la différenciation technologique. Ce décalage au détriment des pays subcapitaliste ayant une faible intégration technologique permet une plus grande réduction de coûts de production tout en augmentant le volume produit et un accroissement de l’écart entre les pays consommateurs et les pays détenteurs de la technologie tout en établissant de nouvelles formes de compétitivité doublées par un manque d’accès a l’innovation technologique qui est dorénavant justifiée par une invocation des lois du marché international et la division internationale du travail technologique. Ces avances technologiques permettent d’imposer une modernisation de l’infrastructure de transportation comme de celle même des aménités. On assista au Maroc a un déferlement de réalisations modernisatrices qui étaient plus guidées par cet impact de l’attractivité sectorielle des investissements étrangers et show case afin de plaire au capital étranger.
Ce « monopole » de l’innovation technologique basé sur une nouvelle redistribution des taches productives, des décisions financières et des responsabilités gestionnaires sur le plan global et a travers une redéfinition de la division international du travail, tous dote les pays créateurs du privilège d’être les premiers innovateurs « first movers » qui entre autres leur permet de dicter les conditions d’embauche, les traitements salariaux et sociaux et le niveau des bénéfices fiscaux et autres incitations offert par les politiques d’attractivité par les pays subcapitalistes vis-a-vis de l’investissement étranger direct productif.
Pour ces pôles industriels « Écosystèmes », une infrastructure fut modernisée et privilégiée dans la politique industrielle et régionale de l’Etat Marocain. L’exemple de l’Alliance Renault – Nissan confirme et innove dans la mise en place de ces plateformes multinationales tournées vers les pays fournisseurs a la fois d’une main-d’oeuvre relativement a bas salaire et possédant une demande pour les véhicules assemblés localement tout en servant de fournisseurs pour les autres « clusters automotive » entourés d’une value-chain supply pour la production des composants et cela comme l’affirmation locale et régionale d’une stratégie internationale.
L’Économie Numérique et l’Économie du Savoir sont ainsi réintégrer a travers le monde permettant ainsi la création d’une synergie a la mode de écosystème comme plateformes pour la production et l’écoulement du produit final dans les marchés a proximité comme l’approvisionnement des autres usines dans les pays distants, ce qui est le cas actuellement de la présence de Renault au Maroc. La production automobile au Maroc est en quelque sorte un « bridge’ entre ces considérations gestionnaires d’intégration internationale des unités de productions comme c’est un créneau de production de véhicules destinés a la fois a la demande locale, européenne et africaine.
Executive Briefing: This article presents the drive of Renault from the edge of bankruptcy to the rise of its model Logan to international prominence, fame and success. At the same time, Renault concentrated its production in countries that have been considered by the major car manufacturers as solely a marketplace and not the location of their production. Cette résurrection de Renault coïncida avec une rupture dans la volonté des décideurs nationaux des pays d’accueil de conduire leurs économies dans la voie du développement généralisé national. Dorénavant, le libéralisme idéologique et sa traduction opérationnelle sous forme du Développement Durable privilégient et accordent la primauté a des politiques conjoncturelles basées sur l’attractivité et l’implantation des créneaux industriels et a des productions sectorielles complémentaires pour la stimulation de la création de l’emploi, l’attrait des producteurs des composants mécaniques et la stimulation des exportations.
Investissement Etranger, Écosystème et Secteur Automobile au Maroc
« Les nouveaux investissements attestent du positionnement affirmé du secteur industriel du Royaume sur des activités à haute valeur ajoutée, ainsi que de la confiance d’opérateurs internationaux de renom dans le programme industriel national. Ils attestent aussi du changement de dimension industrielle à l’œuvre dans le Royaume qui migre ostensiblement vers un modèle économique solide confortant sa marche vers le concert des nations émergentes », rapporte la MAP.
Le Maroc n’est qu’un Hub comme tous les autres plantees par les Multinationales comme creneau regional offrant des facilites a tous les egards et integree dans leur propre supply chain et leur maillons formant la chaine de leur propre interne creation de la valeur ajoutee a leur taux de rentabilite de leurs operations et le niveau de profitabilite necessaire a leur maintain dans l’innovation et comme reponse et bouclier contre la concurrence acharnee des autres producteurs automobiles, et contre les aleas de la conjoncture internationale qui en grande partie provient des contradictions internes au systeme capitaliste durant des cycles de recyclage de ses propres exces au niveau de la production qu’au niveau de la redistribution de cette valeur au niveau social. L’integration de la robotique n’a en fait que reduit la demande pour les voitures plus sophistiquees et destinees pour les marches a haut niveau de revenu et ou la parite du pouvoir d’achat est maintenu haute par l’intervention directe de l’Etat au niveau de la fixation du taux d’interet et autres instruments interventionniste de reglage et de regulation de l’economie.
Dans cette perspective, Moulay Hafid Elalamy Ministre de l’Industrie, de l’Investissement, du Commerce et de l’Economie Numérique déclarait en 2015 que ces investisseurs « peuvent investir 100% et avoir une appropriation entière de leurs entreprises au Maroc. Ils peuvent également rapatrier du pays 100 pour cent des dividendes et tous leurs gains quand ils vendent leur entreprise. Donc, il y a une liberté totale en ce qui concerne le mouvement des capitaux.»

Le Ministre Elalamy souligna aussi l’importance de la formation des travailleurs, ce qui permettra le pays à mieux répondre aux exigences des entreprises étrangères. Une incitation supplémentaire a été la création de 4 zones de libre-échange et des zones de production sectorielles de Kenitra, Nouacer, Tanger et Oujda, bénéficiant d’un taux d’imposition de 0% pour les cinq premières années d’exploitation, suivie d’une taxe de 8,75% pour une période de vingt ans.
Production, Création de l’Emploi et Exports dans l’Industrie Automobile au Maroc
«Les technologies numériques transforment le monde des affaires, du travail et de l’administration publique», Jim Yong Kim, président du Groupe Banque mondiale.
La Société marocaine de construction automobile (SOMACA) a célébré le 28 juillet 2016, la sortie de chaîne de son 500 000ème véhicule produit depuis 2005, date où le groupe Renault a pris le contrôle de l’usine : une citadine Dacia Logan destinée au marché local.ans le royaume chérifien, 70 536 véhicules ont été vendus par le groupe en 2017, soit une hausse de 14,3 % par rapport à 2016, et représentent 41,8 % du marché. Les modèles Logan 2 (Dacia), Dokker (Dacia) et Clio 4 (Renault) ont eu les faveurs des acheteurs, avec respectivement 12 933, 11 781 et 11 441 véhicules vendus, juste devant Sandero (10 959 véhicules vendus). Parmi ce quatuor de tête, seule la Clio 4 est importée, les trois autres modèles étant produits localement à Casablanca pour Logan 2 et Sandero, et à Tanger pour Dokker et Sandero.
Au premier semestre 2017, Renault-Nissan se hisse au premier rang mondial des constructeurs automobiles. Avec 5.268.079 voitures vendues sur les six premiers mois de l’année, le groupe détrône Volkswagen (5.155.600 ventes) qui était n°1 en 2016 malgré le diesel gate. Toyota complète ce podium avec 5.129.000 véhicules vendus. Sur l’année écoulée, le nombre de voitures écoulées par Renault a bondi de 10,4%, ajoute le quotidien économique.*
Création de l’Emploi:
Selon certaines déclarations, un seul emploi créé dans l’industrie automobile mène à six autres emplois directs dans le secteur des fournisseurs et d’autres accompagné de quatre autres emplois indirects. Ce qui signifie un emploi dans l’industrie automobile crée dix autres emplois au total. Cette trajectoire de création modernisant avait permit ainsi l’émergence de nouveaux écosystèmes, y compris au sein même du secteur automobile, qui a attiré des investissements de sociétés telle que l’ouverture en 2012 par Renault de l’usine de production de pointe à Tanger Med (Maroc: Industrie Automobile).
Alors même que PSA Peugeot Citroën est en difficulté en Europe; le groupe automobile a également révélé des plans de construction d’une usine marocaine de 630 millions de dollars, cherchant ainsi a réduire à la fois les coûts de production et sa dépendance a l’égard des marchés européens. Un site près de la ville côtière de Kenitra commencera à assembler de petites et sous-compactes modèles pour l’Afrique et le Moyen-Orient d’ici 2019. L’entreprise s’attend à ce que l’usine se procure 60 pour cent des composants localement, éventuellement grimper a 80% à mesure que la chaîne d’approvisionnement se développe. Le but est d’avoir une main-d’œuvre de 4500 personnes une fois l’usine atteint sa capacité de 200 000 véhicules. La capacité de production de 90 000 véhicules devrait s’élever à 200 000 alors que les ventes commencent à décoller.
L’industrie automobile reste la plus performante et poursuit sa progression entamée depuis la construction de l’usine Renault à Tanger. Concernant cette catégorie en particulier, durant l’exercice de 2017, le royaume a exporté 58,5 milliards de dirhams, soit une hausse de 7,1 % en comparaison avec 2016. Pour Renault, l’usine de Tanger s’est concentrée sur la production et l’exportation du véhicule de la gamme Entry, commercialisé sous la marque Dacia en Espagne, en France et en Allemagne.
Selon Moulay Hafid Elalamy Ministre de l’Industrie, de l’Investissement, du Commerce et de l’Economie Numérique, « le Maroc est actuellement un joueur mondial de taille raisonnable et, avec une projection dans les cinq prochaines années pour atteindre un million de véhicules, nous deviendrons un leader dans ce domaine. » Fait nouveau, Moulay Hafid Elalamy n’exclut pas d’attirer les plus grands groupes en recourant « aux services de banques d’affaires payées par success fees [primes de réussite] ».
Paul Carvalho, directeur général de Renault Groupe au Maroc, raconte, « chez Renault nous avons demandé nous-mêmes, allons-nous trouver les compétences, le soutien du gouvernement et l’infrastructure nous permettrait de réussir? Mais, vous pouvez voir ce que a été fait en termes d’infrastructure, tels que les autoroutes et les chemins de fer. » (Voir détails dans la carte ci-dessous de l’intégration logistique de Tanger avec Tétouan).
Ainsi, une réorientation du développement national fut entreprise a travers la primauté accordée a des créneaux industriels et a des productions sectorielles complémentaires dans la création de l’emploi, l’installation des producteurs des composants mécaniques et la stimulation des exportations. De même, l’apport de l’investissement etranger n’est plus porteur de know-how ou de transfert de technologie mais seulement de créateur d’emploi et de subcapitalisation de l’économie nationale aux directives et variations de l’Economie du Savoir globalisée et comme un secteur de production industrielle répondant aux termes du développement durable préconisé comme expression régionale du libéralisme international des échanges commerciaux.
Investissement Etranger, Écosystème et Secteur Automobile au Maroc
En 2017, écosystème prend place dans la stratégie des productions localisées de l’industrie automobile qui désormais au Maroc s’approvisionne des entreprises étrangères installées dans Tanger Automotive City a proximité de Tanger Med et produisant des composantes tel que les jantes en aluminium, des tableaux de bord, des pare-chocs, de sièges ou encore de boîtiers électromécaniques. Le ministre de l’Industrie, de l’Investissement, du Commerce et de l’Economie numérique, Moulay Hafid Elalamy, a prononcé une allocution devant le Roi dans laquelle il a indiqué que « le Plan d’Accélération Industrielle et la démarche des écosystèmes sont des leviers réels de l’accélération industrielle en marche », notant que les 26 investissements lancés dans l’automobile introduisent de nouvelles spécialisations au Maroc, renforcent l’intégration locale, densifient le tissu productif, et répondent à un besoin jusque-là comblé par l’import. Ils généreront 11 568 emplois directs, a-t-il indiqué. Le Roi Mohammed VI présida la cérémonie de lancement de 26 investissements industriels dans le secteur de l’automobile, d’un montant global de 13,78 milliards de dirhams. Une annonce qui intervient au lendemain de l’accord conclu avec le spécialiste chinois de la voiture électrique BYD Auto Industry.
Sur les 26 investissements, six projets s’inscrivent dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre de l’Écosystème Renault qui développe une plateforme mondiale d’approvisionnement depuis le Royaume. En effet, six projets meublent l’Écosystème pour Renault alors que 13 investissements seront réalisés dans le cadre de l’Écosystème PSA Peugeot qui impulse un nouveau développement à Kénitra, créant un total de 11 568 emplois directs pour un investissement de 13,8 MMDH. Cinq autres investissements s’inscrivent dans le cadre des activités de l’Écosystème «câblage et connectique», lancé en octobre 2014 et enfin deux investissements se déploient dans le cadre de l’Écosystème Valeo. Ces montants englobent aussi la production de jantes en aluminium, de tableaux de bord, de pare-chocs, de sièges ou encore de boîtiers électromécaniques. Grâce à la structuration de cet écosystème d’envergure, PSA Peugeot s’approvisionne actuellement en pièces usinées à hauteur d’un milliard d’euros par an à partir du Maroc et atteint un taux d’intégration locale de 55 %.
Investissement Etranger, Écosystème et Secteur Automobile au Maroc
Par contre, le déficit commercial du Maroc au titre de l’année 2017 s’est creusé de 2,6 %, selon les dernières statistiques livrées par l’Office des Changes, mardi 16 janvier. La différence entre les exportations du pays et ses importations s’élève ainsi à 189,8 milliards de dirhams (16,7 milliards d’euros), contre 185 milliards de dirhams l’année précédente. C’est la deuxième année consécutive que le déficit commercial s’accentue.
Le Maroc trouve dans l’Afrique Subsaharienne le contrepoids aux déséquilibres traversées par les économies occidentales. Pour se protéger, on assiste aux éclatements et a la remise en cause d’accords commerciaux, Brexit, projet d’accord régional transpacifique (TPP), Aléna (Nafta)et le Partenariat transatlantique (TTIP ou Tafta). En même temps, les chancelleries occidentales optent pour la mise en place de politique étrangère basée sur leurs armada protectionniste tel que les barrières administratives de « quota, » les mesures d’arrêt des flux migratoires et cela comme des décisions imposées par leur conjoncture instable. Ces élucubrations avaient toutes affaibli ou réduit la croissance des échanges tant avec le Maroc que le reste de l’Afrique donnant une impulsion a la régionalisation des échanges commerciaux et la recherche de débouchés par une pléiade d’accords d’association, d’intégration et de libre-échange.
Une compétition plus acharnée s’était ainsi infiltrée dans les échanges commerciaux dont la globalisation avait soudé les maillons de son enchaînement international. L’Afrique doit ainsi retourner a ses propres ressources et potentialités locales, régionales et périphériques a travers le renforcement du rapprochement entre ses composantes économiques, a savoir les Communautés Economiques Régionales et les accords bilatéraux d’échange commerciaux, financiers, culturels et dans ce cas de harmonisation de l’Economie Numérique avec l’Economie du Savoir.
Education Entrepreneuriale, Economie Numérique et Economie du Savoir en Afrique
C’est a travers l’établissement d’une économie numérique que les responsables du commerce extérieur et des relations financières internationales peuvent avoir accès a des données fiables et une gestion plus rapprochée des flux et leurs changements conjoncturels. Les données correspondantes peuvent faciliter la prise de decision comme toute intervention sectorielle sans remettre en cause les engagements pris envers le reste de l’Afrique et du monde avec lesquels le Maroc possède des traités d’échanges culturels et commerciaux.
De même, c’est dans l’éducation numérique que le Maroc peut explorer les ressources infra-structurelles, logistiques et technologiques pour puiser et établir les fondations digitales pour le renforcement de sa position de partenaire – compétiteur dans ses tentatives d’intégration tant dans le marché international, africain que pour sa candidature au Carré des pays émergents.
Economie du Savoir est a privilégier dans la formation de nouvelles strates d’entrepreneurs qui peuvent former une nouvelle « Technocratie Numérique » capable de guider et d’explorer les nouveaux horizons et applications numériques pour pouvoir coordonner et interconnecter les différentes ressources entrepreneuriales dans un même « One Stop Shop » afin d’avoir une facilite et une efficience dans l’accès, le traitement et la formulation de décisions et de solutions pouvant contribuer a passer a une vitesse supérieure dans leur élan innovateur entrepreneurial.
Pour cette raison, nous proposons également la création d’un American Institute of Entrepreneurship in Africa afin de contribuer dans l’établissement des premiers jalons d’un telle entreprise et un tel besoin, celui d’intégrer l’Économie Numérique et l’Économie du Savoir pour renforcer l’intégration économique régionale au Maroc et au sein de l’Afrique (voir détails dans la présentation ci-dessous)..

Les profonds changements induits par les technologies numériques dans le circuit du transfert de la valeur et dans la distribution logistique de la marchandise et ses avoirs financiers font actuellement leur apparition même dans l’offre des services sociaux et publics en Californie et cela en plusieurs langues utilisées par le diverses ethnies d’immigrées. A travers un tel rapprochement et une adaptation de l’outil technologique robotique en fonction des besoins d’information, de collecte des formulaires et des applications ainsi que l’obtention de l’aide sociale, les services administratifs visent a la fois le renforcement de l’efficacité via une double dimension d’innovation du procédé établi et du produit final escompté. En Chine, c’est les examens administratifs et les examens scolaires sont évalués et notés par des robots.
Cette innovation de procédé a travers l’adoption de la technologie robotique et l’intelligence artificielle permet en premier l’exploration de données sans avoir a recourir au retour de l’information ou bien a la réaction des utilisateurs pour identifier, collecter et quantifier les besoins prospectifs. L’introduction des technologies du futur et numériques, y compris l’Intelligence Artificielle d’innovation de produit permet l’émergence de nouveaux services, donc une croissance et une progression des services rendus sans pour autant imposer une occupation foncière plus large. L’espace déjà utilisé est donc plus manageable avec une plus grande productivité et une utilisation de l’environnement plus rationnelle tout en offrant un service direct et synchronous.
Ainsi, cette progression technologique se traduit aussi par une amélioration dans la provision de services se réalisent aussi a travers la multiplicité des services qui sont fournis simultanément avec ciblage, traçabilité et rétractabilité et sous la forme de Mode de Transfert Asynchrone/Spontané. L’autre dimension de cette « multitude de services et de produits», est le rassemblement, sur des plateformes multiples toute une panoplie d’informations décentralisées qui sont fournies par les utilisateurs qui permettent l’évaluation des performances, la croissance des demandes, l’identification de l’inefficacité et la définition de nouvelles stratégies en réponse.
Pour que ces nouvelles technologies conduisent à plus d’efficacité, il est nécessaire qu’elles s’accompagnent de changements organisationnels, d’une grande transparence dans leur utilisation et d’un recours massif aux services publics numériques par les citoyens et les entreprises.
Projet Numérique et Consultation Populaire
Dans le cadre d’un projet de développement numérique ayant des retombées directes sur l’économie-système, un ensemble d’outils très concrets doivent être conçus et doivent aussi résulter de la consultation directe publique notamment entre les entrepreneurs concernés, les institutions étatiques et les industriels établis et le reste des citoyens et cela tout au long de la mise en place et le lancement des étapes du projet numérique. Le numérique soulève des questions essentielles sur lesquelles il faut se positionner clairement pour que le contrat entre les citoyens et l’État soit adapté à cette nouvelle ère.et tant au niveau national comme sur le plan de sa projection à l’international.
Un changement des procédures et l’introduction de nouvelles formes de gestion doivent se combiner pour réussir une transition vers l’adoption des techniques numériques qui sont aussi relayées et branchées sur un circuit global tout en ayant une visée et un ancrage locale et régionales. Dans ce but, la gestion des services et l’offre de produits est conduite a travers l’existence d’une vision dont les compétences, les systèmes d’incitation, les ressources et le plan d’action doivent être additionnés et harmonisés pour réussir l’adoption d’un changement opérationnel. L’utilisation efficace du numérique comme nouvelles techniques doit être orientée et basée sur une approche intégrée de la gestion du changement organisationnel et du développement des structures opérationnelles tant au niveau local, régional et international.
Identifier les problèmes réglementaires potentiels sur le marché des applications mobiles et de prendre en compte une série de problèmes rencontrés par les consommateurs.
Relocaliser le Maroc a travers une adoption d’une chaîne de valeur et un développement numérique pouvant a la fois être une réponse et une solution administrative et commerciale facilitant l’émergence du Maroc sur le plan de l’intégration numérique en tant qu’Economie Sociale tout en stimulant la creation d’Entreprises Sociales.
“Sociabiliser” l’utilisation numérique par les institutions et les entreprises et par les fournisseurs des applications et les logiciels peut aussi rendre réel la possibilité de “Connect Africa” afin de créer des marchés périphériques et limitrophes pour le Numérique Marocain et cela a travers les Communautés économiques régionales (CER) de l’Union africaine.

Projet de gestion du Changement de Valeur: résultats et résultats
Voici une recherche récente que j’ai développée sur le ROI et qui est liée à une étude de programme que je développe pour mon projet de création: American Institute of Entrepreneurship in Africa. Ce travail est basé sur les domaines d’étude du ROI concernant la gestion du changement de valeur et le développement numérique en réponse aux défis rencontrés par le Maroc et l’Afrique dans leur intégration réciproque et celle parallèle dans le marché international:
Cette valeur de la gestion du changement est définie en termes de réussite du projet, de réalisation des avantages, de création de valeur et de réalisation du profit sur l’investissement.
«Les technologies numériques transforment le monde des affaires, du travail et de l’administration publique », a déclaré Jim Yong Kim, président du Groupe Banque mondiale. “
Au niveau des affaires financières, le Maroc avait déjà entamé une telle perspective. En effet, dès 1990 on assista à l’implantation de la BMCE Bank qui avait acquis successivement 27,38% du capital de la Banque de développement du Maroc, et 25% du tour de table de Congolaise des banques. En 2007, la BMCE s’est appropriée un contrôle d’actionnariat de l’ordre de 59,39% dans la Bank of Africa du Mali. Actuellement, le groupe BMCE s’est forgé un réseau numérique, de filiales et de représentations qui couvre 14 pays africains et représente l’un des premiers réseaux électroniques bancaires dans la région de l’Union Économique et Monétaire Ouest-Africaine.
« Nous devons continuer à connecter [l’Afrique et] tout le monde et ne laisser personne sur la touche, parce que le coût des opportunités perdues est énorme. Mais pour que les dividendes du numérique soient largement partagés entre toutes les franges de la société, les pays doivent aussi améliorer leur climat des affaires, investir dans l’éducation et la santé, et promouvoir la bonne gouvernance.» Jim Yong Kim
En effet, la numérisation fait évoluer l’administration vers une plateforme de réciprocité a travers laquelle les citoyens et les services publics interactivement communiquent, et interagissent. De ce fait, le numérique au Maroc doit se positionner dans l’efficacité et la transparence pour que le contrat entre les citoyens/nes et l’État soit adapté à cette nouvelle ère. L’Etat et les pouvoirs publics doivent se fournir des potentialités suivantes:
Mobiliser des données fiables en matière de diagnostic organisationnel du processus de la gestion du changement suite a l’adaptation des techniques numériques;
Concevoir des modèles numériques et évaluer les possibilités de changement organisationnel dans le but de faire une analyse approfondie de l’apport potentiel et de planifier la mise en oeuvre de nouveaux services et produits;
Développer des compétences en gestion numérique du changement dans la préparation, la mise en oeuvre, la communication et l’évaluation d’un changement organisationnel a travers une formation continue correspondante a l’évolution des technologies du futur.
Dans ce but, les filières organisationnelles considérées d’avenir constituent les grands axes de développement et d’implantation d’orientations et de décisions allant dans le sens de l’encouragement de l’innovation qui favorise l’édification d’une organisation plus cohérente et unifiée.Concernant l’éducation numérique au Maroc et son intégration par l’economie numérique, je vous propose mon projet sur l’établissement d’une structure de formation, de préparation et d’accompagnement des Entrepreneuriat au Maroc et dans le reste de l’Afrique en premier les pays avec lesquels le Maroc possède des traités d’échanges culturels et commerciaux.

This is a presentation of the relationship of China with Africa depicting several years of interactions that had been developed through indirect and direct investments and technical support provided to the African States by Chinese companies and engineers.
China has mastered the means and ways to offer services to African governments by becoming the model for the construction of large products that include infrastructure, urbanization, rehabilitation of regions and areas for the development of new logistical and transportation systems, and the distribution of energy, water, and other sources to supply cities and rural zones, including agriculture, building new offices and modernization of administrative and governmental offices.
In parallel to the modernization, the African States need, China has provided the financial leverage and resources for such projects. These complementary drives toward financing and realizing the projects gave China the upper hand in demonstrating its abilities to initiate, develop, and achieve the project without any interference or support from other nations. This kind of prominence has also made China to be trusted as the provider of services that will be completed in good condition with good standing. Read more here:
Angola Model and China Quest for Oil and the Shift of China From Southwest Africa to the Middle East
Concerns are growing in the US and other countries regarding economic cooperation between China and Africa including the so-called “debt trap,” in which China increases its influence by extending excessive loans to developing countries. Angola and Angola Model is frequently used as a case of such debt trap based on the extraction of natural resources or supply of energetic and strategic minerals by African nations in exchange for loans provided by China State and Financial Institutions.
Angola’s long-running financial relationship with China has been built on a simple equation: Angola would repay its growing Chinese debt with oil. This strategy became known as the Angola Model.
Since 2002, Angola has borrowed more than $45 billion from China, more than half of that going into its energy sector. More than a decade ago, Angola was China’s No. 2 source of crude oil. China receives nearly 72% of Angola’s oil exports, making it Angola’s largest oil importer.
According to a report from the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace: “In 2010, Angola was the world’s second-largest exporter of oil to China, after Saudi Arabia. But it has fallen down the list as Beijing has increasingly turned to the Arab states of the Gulf Cooperation Council, Russia, and other Asian countries.
However, the beginning of the end when between 2019 and 2023, Angola’s oil production fell 22% from 1.42 million barrels per day to 1.1 million barrels per day. The subsequent drop in business is straining Angola’s ability to keep up with its Chinese debt. As oil revenues have declined, by 2023, Angola had been bumped to number eight on this ranking of oil suppliers to China.” China receives nearly 72% of Angola’s oil exports, making it Angola’s largest oil importer. However, the recent drop in business is straining Angola’s ability to keep up with its Chinese debt. Since 2002, Angola has borrowed more than $45 billion from China, more than half of that going into its energy sector, according to Boston University.
Angola still owes Chinese lenders $17 billion. Chinese loans constitute about 40% of Angola’s total debt. Overall, debt payments consume about half of Angola’s national budget every year, placing it among African countries most vulnerable to a potential debt crisis, according to international credit rating agency S&P Global.
As oil revenues have declined, Angola has been forced to cover interest payments on its debt by tapping into a Chinese-held $1.5 billion escrow fund that was mandated as part of its loans. As China Buys Less Oil, as China has begun importing less oil from Angola and other African nations and more from Russia, the Persian Gulf, and Asia, Angola Struggles To Repay Debt.
Chinese lenders gave Angola a three-year reprieve on loan payments that ended in 2023 — just as Angola’s economy took a downturn. As oil revenues have declined, Angola has been forced to cover interest payments on its debt by tapping into a Chinese-held $1.5 billion escrow fund that was mandated as part of its loans. This year’s debt payment to Chinese leaders is estimated at $10.1 billion.
Angola recently left OPEC, the cartel of oil-producing countries, after a dispute over quotas. Angolan authorities hope that step will encourage more direct investment by China and other countries in its oil sector. In the meantime, the country’s leaders are trying to diversify their economy to reduce the impact of fluctuating oil prices.
This shift has been driven, in part, by African countries’ lack of investment in new oilfields and infrastructure. Aging equipment and shrinking oilfields make the continent’s oil producers, including Angola, less reliable as exporters, according to researchers with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
When the Missionaries arrived, the Africans had the Land and the Missionaries had the Bible. They taught us how to pray with our eyes closed. When we opened them, they had the land and we had the Bible. – Jomo Kenyatta

In the present article, we will emphasize the reasons for the setback experienced by the restructuring and rescheduling of Zambia’s External Debt and how even with the twist of events and alliances other projects such as the Liboto Corridor Project can become a double edge sword with 2 sharp sides and even to be transformed in the Sword of Damocles put on the top of the Zambia Head.
In the case of Lobito investment, China holds the primary role, and in Central Africa and Sahel, Russia with the military power making Africa more tuned toward a nationalistic approach for its development and using colonialism and neo-colonialism as the reason for changing the rulers by new military militants instead the legation of the western countries.
The Lobito Atlantic Railway project, covering Angola, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), and Zambia, is a significant infrastructure initiative. Led by the United States, the project aims to enhance logistical infrastructure in southern Africa. However, Chinese state-owned enterprises and private companies already dominate critical mineral supply chains (such as copper and cobalt) needed for electric vehicle components.
And there are countries with worrying amounts of Chinese debt. In Djibouti, China holds 77% of the national debt, while Zambia’s $6.4 billion in Chinese loans represents the lion’s share of its commitments. A spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) told CNN via email that China has paid “high attention” to the African debt situation, and is dedicated to “sustainable development.”
United States – Angola: Rejevunating Courting Relationship
Press Release: Corporate Council on Africa announces Angola as host of the 2025 U.S.-Africa Business Summit
Washington, D.C. – September 6, 2024 – The Corporate Council on Africa (CCA) has the high honor of announcing that the Government of the Republic of Angola will host the 17th U.S.-Africa Business Summit in 2025 in the city of Luanda, Angola.
Following a meeting of CCA leadership with His Excellency João Lourenço, President of the Republic of Angola during the May 2024 U.S.-Africa Business Summit in Dallas, Texas, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOA) was developed and was signed today in Washington, DC by H.E. Mr. Agostinho Van-Dunem, Ambassador of the Republic of Angola to the United States and Ms. Florizelle (Florie) Liser, President and CEO of CCA to officially mark this important collaboration.
The U.S.-Africa Business Summit is recognized as one of the most important business platforms that annually brings together African Heads of State and key Ministers, U.S. Cabinet officials and heads of major agencies, and CEOs and senior executives of U.S. and African companies to foster investment, trade, and commercial collaboration.
The 2025 Summit marks a significant milestone as Angola celebrates the 50th anniversary of its national independence and assumes the Chairmanship of the African Union (AU). Thus, co-organizing and hosting the U.S.-Africa Business Summit during such a momentous year underscores Angola’s firm commitment to promoting a new phase in as well as strengthening economic ties between Africa and the United States. Angola’s selection as the host country is a testament to its remarkable progress and potential as a key player in the African economy.
The Summit will showcase Angola’s diverse industries but will be continental in focus highlighting business and investment opportunities across the African continent in a range of sectors from energy and infrastructure to agriculture and technology, creative economy, manufacturing to digital economy and health.”We are delighted to bring the U.S.-Africa Business Summit to Angola in the Summer of 2025,” said Florie Liser, President and CEO of the Corporate Council on Africa.
“This year’s Summit promises to be a landmark event, highlighting not only Angola’s economic potential and strategic importance as a leader in Africa, but recognizing the African continent’s increasing importance as a strategic economic, trade, and business partner of the U.S. Government and private sector.”
The 2025 Summit will be a crucial opportunity to identify effective and sustainable solutions to diversify the African economy and to increase trade, investment, and business in sectors with a high impact on the lives of African and American people, enterprises, workers, and consumers.
Participants will engage in high-level discussions on the critical issues and challenges, key sectors, and opportunities impacting the U.S.-Africa trade and investment relationship as well as sign deals and advance new business ventures and commercial partnerships that will drive economic growth and development both in the United States and Africa.
The 2025 U.S.-Africa Business Summit is expected to attract over 1,500 attendees, including African Heads of State, senior U.S. Government officials, CEOs, investors, and entrepreneurs. The event will feature plenary sessions, panel discussions, investment pitch sessions, networking opportunities, and an exhibition showcasing innovative products and services.
China and the Middle East’s Economic Weight in the Balance of Multipolarism
The turning point for the loss of acceptance of the United States in the Arab World was the impact of October 7, 2023, which is a reminder of October 1973 and the shaking relation of the West in the Arab World. The recent decline in the United States’ standing in the Arab Middle East and China’s growing influence indeed have significant implications. A new public opinion survey reveals that Arab citizens’ views of the United States have sharply declined due to its support for Israel during the conflict in Gaza. China, surprisingly, emerges as the main beneficiary in the region.
Jun 11, 2024 — … United States, too. Because of the war in Gaza, Arab public opinion has turned sharply against Israel’s staunchest ally, the United States a …
China’s gains in the Middle East erupted from capitalizing on the Gaza War, reaping diplomatic rewards with minimal investment. China’s humanitarian aid, high-level visits, and rhetorical support for the Palestinians are paying off. China’s benefits extend beyond the Middle East to Southeast Asia. Public approval of the U.S. among Muslim-majority populations in Southeast Asia has also fallen sharply and Gaza has become the focus for now. Global perceptions of the U.S. used to be considered by U.S. political decision-makers, but today’s intense political polarization hinders such concerns.
According to the Western side of the stories on the Middle East, the longer the Gaza conflict persists, the more China’s standing grows in the Middle East and the Global South. In this complex geopolitical landscape, the balance of power is shifting, and China is strategically leveraging opportunities.

China Seeks Strategic Partnership in the Middle East
China’s growing influence in the Middle East is a significant geopolitical development. Its economic ties, energy security interests, and diplomatic engagement have deepened in recent years.
Key Aspects of China’s Middle East Policy
China is a major importer of oil and gas from the region, and its economic investments through initiatives like the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) have expanded significantly.
The Middle East remains a crucial energy source for all Western economies and China is positioning itself in the same time, ensuring its economic growth and development.
China is a major trading partner and investor in the region, particularly in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. The Middle East is a crucial source of energy for China, and its relationship with Saudi Arabia is primarily driven by energy interests.
China seeks to position itself as a strategic partner to Middle Eastern countries, offering an alternative to the United States.
Saudi Arabia has opted not to renew its 50-year petrodollar agreement with the United States, which expired on June 9, 2024.
The move allows Saudi Arabia to sell oil in multiple currencies, including the Chinese RMB, euro, yen and yuan, potentially accelerating the global shift away from the US dollar.
Saudi Arabia’s decision to sell oil in multiple currencies, including the Chinese RMB, euro, yen and yuan, signals a sea change in the dynamics of global energy trade.
The move challenges the US dollar’s long-standing dominance in the oil market, reflecting Saudi Arabia’s growing economic ties with China and Russia.

Noting the longstanding traditional friendship between China and Saudi Arabia, Li said that since the establishment of diplomatic relations 34 years ago, bilateral relations have achieved leapfrog development through joint efforts, yielding fruitful results in practical cooperation.
During his stay, Li will engage in in-depth discussions with the Saudi crown prince and prime minister on bilateral relations and other issues of common concern to strengthen friendship and expand cooperation.
In December 2022, Chinese President Xi Jinping attended the first China-Arab States Summit and the first China-Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Summit and paid a state visit to Saudi Arabia, said Li.
For over a year, both sides have actively implemented the key outcomes of the summits, continuously strengthening political mutual trust, steadily advancing exchanges and cooperation in various fields, maintaining close communication and coordination on regional and international affairs, and continuously enhancing the China-Saudi Arabia comprehensive strategic partnership, the Chinese premier said.
Li also expressed his expectation that the visit would further expand mutually beneficial cooperation in various fields, deepen the friendship between the two peoples, and foster greater progress in China-GCC and China-Arab relations.
“The practical cooperation between Saudi Arabia and China is characterized by its comprehensiveness and strategic nature,” said Ibrahim Al-Shammari, research director of Riyadh Center for Political and Strategic Studies.
Al-Shammari said Saudi Arabia and China are driving the development of their economic and trade relations through major initiatives such as the Belt and Road Initiative, which aligns with the Saudi Vision 2030.
Li’s visit to Saudi Arabia sends a strong signal that the two countries will continue to strengthen strategic cooperation in various fields, which demonstrates the importance both sides attach to their strategic partnership and the willingness to deepen practical cooperation, Al-Shammari added.
Saudi Arabia is the first leg of Li’s four-day visit to the Middle East, which will also take him to the United Arab Emirates.
Saudi Arabia’s strategy as it looks beyond its traditional Western partners and deepens its relationship with China. For Saudi Arabia, China represents not only a vital trading partner but also a source of technological and cultural exchange. The influx of Chinese language teachers and tourists, along with major financial agreements, signals that this partnership is only set to grow.
“By strengthening bilateral ties with China, the ADS agreement opens doors for economic development across sectors, benefiting both nations,” Abdulrahman Ahmad Al-Harbi, Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador to China stated in June.
Saudi Arabia has ambitious tourism goals, with the government aiming for 70 million international visitors by the end of the decade. In 2023, 27 million international tourists visited Saudi Arabia, many for religious purposes. However, the kingdom is rapidly expanding its leisure offerings, with projects such as the Red Sea Project leading the way.
For China, Saudi Arabia offers a stable and rapidly developing market. The kingdom’s young population is increasingly tech-savvy and eager to engage in international commerce, presenting opportunities for Chinese companies like Huawei, which are looking to expand in the Middle East.
At the same time, these developments are reshaping the region’s geopolitical landscape. Saudi Arabia’s partnership with China represents a realignment of its global alliances, one that reflects a broader trend of Eastern economies taking on more prominent roles in global affairs. This growing cooperation is part of a larger shift that could redefine trade, business, and cultural exchanges in the region.
Ultimately, deepening ties between China and Saudi Arabia will present major new opportunities for luxury and lifestyle brands. As tourism and business collaborations expand, brands that cater to both markets can tap into the growing demand for high-end experiences and products.
With an influx of Chinese tourists and the rise of e-commerce among Saudi Arabia’s young, tech-savvy population, luxury brands have a prime opportunity to position themselves and benefit immensely from this evolving landscape.
