Roman Sero’s appointment as NDB’s new COO reflects BRICS’ push to strengthen the bank’s structure, expand its global role, and accelerate infrastructure investment across member countries.
The New Development Bank (NDB), the financial arm of the BRICS bloc, has appointed Roman Sero as its new Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer. The appointment aims to strengthen the bank’s leadership structure and accelerate the implementation of infrastructure projects across member states.
With a long career in financial markets, asset management, and investment banking, Sero will now oversee the bank’s core operations, project management, and the expansion of its regional offices. He is expected to play a key role in enhancing investment efficiency and broadening BRICS’ financial cooperation.
Through this leadership change, NDB seeks to boost its influence in the global financial system and facilitate funding for large-scale projects in emerging economies. The move also aligns with BRICS’ broader goal of building a multipolar financial order and reducing dependency on the US dollar.
