Abstract

The inclusion of the most dynamically developing countries in global value chains marked a gradual shift in the center of economic gravity in the world economy from the West to the East. In an effort to maintain their leading positions in the global monetary and financial system, today Western countries, led by the United States, create artificial barriers for developing countries to access the global financial architecture, which contradicts the logic and laws of the free market and increases geopolitical tensions. The purpose of the paper is to reveal and systematize the main factors contributing to the dysfunctionality of the modern world monetary and financial system and develop conceptual approaches to increasing its stability, taking into account the capabilities and interests of the most dynamically developing countries. The following methods were used to achieve the paper’s goal: scientific abstraction (to generalize the crisis-generating factors of the modern world monetary and financial system); structural and functional analysis (to justify the need to form a “non-dollar” interregional (transcontinental) monetary and financial space and the possibility of the BRICS countries creating their own payment and settlement infrastructure and international liquidity); deduction and comparison (to identify problems that hinder China’s promotion to the role of the leader of the new world economic order and disclosure of contradictions in the monetary and financial regionalization of the single European market). A comprehensive approach has been developed to form and ensure the functionality of the interregional (transcontinental) monetary and financial space of the BRICS countries, including measures aimed at countering the institutional monopolization of the functions of global financial intermediation by defining their own norms, rules and standards for the functioning and regulation of interregional financial markets by the BRICS countries. From a practical point of view, this approach can be used by the government bodies of the Russian Federation and the Bank of Russia to develop a new strategy and tactics for the country’s international monetary and financial cooperation in the face of tougher external sanctions, as well as to develop appropriate measures aimed at ensuring Russia’s financial and economic sovereignty.
