Russia and BRICS: New Horizons for Migration and Investment
Global Context
BRICS cooperation is entering a new stage. India and China are restoring air links, removing trade barriers, and launching joint projects in energy and technology.
For China, this means offsetting lower exports by opening new markets. For India, it is a way to attract Chinese investment and accelerate industrial growth (Bloomberg).
At the same time, their partnership is about more than trade. Analysts at Oilcapital note that joint actions by India and China could challenge the G7 and reshape the current global financial system. Within BRICS, countries are already discussing an alternative currency and new financial tools, including mechanisms for energy trade.
Russia as a Hub for BRICS
In this environment, Russia is becoming an important hub for BRICS cooperation. Current discussions focus on attracting labor and skilled specialists from India, China, and other member states to:
Support construction and infrastructure projects
Help rebuild border regions
Develop new industrial and energy clusters.
The Role of International Forums
Key platforms such as the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) and the Eastern Economic Forum (EEF) are now shaping migration flows, building investment agreements, and setting the agenda for future partnerships.
Opportunities for BRICS Professionals and Investors
Russia offers a wide range of opportunities, including:
Jobs in construction and industry with residency prospects,
Business registration and access to government programs,
Investment in real estate and energy, supported by new financial instruments,
Educational programs that can lead to long-term residence.
MIGRION’s View
At MIGRION, we see migration as part of a much larger economic process. While Europe and the U.S. used to define the rules, the momentum is now shifting toward BRICS.
For clients from India, China, and other countries, this creates new pathways for relocation and integration. For Russia, it opens the door to attracting both talent and investment into key regions.
We already assist clients with relocation and residency in Europe and are carefully watching new opportunities across Eurasia. With Russia playing a stronger role within BRICS, we are ready to advise clients on the next steps in this evolving landscape.
