What is one of the key sectors focused on by the BRICS Business Council?
Infrastructure
Infrastructure is correct.
The BRICS Business Council was set up at the Durban (South Africa) summit in 2013 to strengthen trade, business and investment links among the private sectors of the BRICS countries and to give business recommendations to BRICS leaders.
It works through sector-specific working groups, which include infrastructure, manufacturing, energy and green economy, financial services, agribusiness, skills development, digital economy and aviation. Infrastructure is one of its core focus areas because BRICS economies need large investment in transport, power and urban projects, which the BRICS New Development Bank also funds.
Tourism, fashion and entertainment are not among its key working sectors.
