- Wells Fargo states the U.S. dollar remains secure as the global reserve currency despite de-dollarization efforts from BRICS countries.
- The BRICS group is encouraging the use of local currencies in cross-border trade, reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar.
- According to Wells Fargo, demand for U.S.-denominated assets such as government bonds and stocks remains high.
- There is currently no strong alternative currency to replace the dollar in global reserves, according to the bank.
- Wells Fargo projects the U.S. dollar will continue its dominance for years or even decades.
The U.S. dollar will continue to serve as the world’s main reserve currency, according to a recent statement by Wells Fargo. The assessment follows moves by the BRICS alliance—made up of Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, along with several new members—to use local currencies in place of the dollar for international trade.
Recent policies by BRICS members have focused on increasing the use of the Chinese yuan, Russian ruble, and Indian currency in efforts to reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar. Despite these initiatives, Wells Fargo reported that the demand for U.S. assets—such as government bonds, currency, and stocks—remains strong.
In a note to clients, Wells Fargo wrote: “Taking these factors into account, we see limited alternatives for FX reserve managers to US government bonds and, accordingly, view the US dollar’s status as the global reserve currency as secure for the foreseeable future.” The bank pointed out that foreign exchange managers continue to show minimal demand for assets denominated in other currencies.
The BRICS alliance, which has expanded to 10 members, is working to strengthen the role of its members’ local currencies for settling international transactions. However, Wells Fargo noted that decades of economic influence by the U.S. cannot easily be overcome. The bank stated that unless another currency poses a significant and credible challenge to the dollar’s dominance, the U.S. dollar will remain the leading global reserve.
