BRICS is an intergovernmental organization comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, UAE, Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran and Saudi Arabia.
Originally identified to highlight investment opportunities, the grouping evolved into a cohesive geopolitical bloc, with their governments meeting annually at formal summits and coordinating multilateral policies since 2009.
Bilateral relations among BRICS are conducted mainly on the basis of non-interference, equality, and mutual benefit.
The term BRIC was originally developed in the context of foreign investment strategies. It was introduced in the 2001 publication, Building Better Global Economic BRICs by then-chairman of Goldman Sachs Asset Management, Jim O’Neill
