De-Dollarization
The structural macro trend where nations — especially BRICS+ members — deliberately reduce their reliance on the US Dollar as a reserve currency, oil pricing medium, and trade settlement currency. Tracked via IMF COFER data (USD share of allocated reserves), bilateral local currency trade agreements, central bank gold purchases, and the emergence of alternative settlement networks (mBridge, Afrexim-based systems).

USD reserve share peaked at ~73% in 2001 and has declined to ~58% by 2024 — a 15-percentage-point shift in two decades. While still dominant, the directional trend has meaningful implications for US Treasury demand and the Fed's ability to run sustained deficits without inflationary consequences.

The arrangement, formalised between the US and Saudi Arabia in 1974, whereby oil is priced and settled exclusively in US Dollars globally. This creates structural, recurring demand for USD from every oil-importing nation worldwide — effectively backing the dollar with energy rather than gold after Nixon closed the gold window in 1971. Saudi Aramco's first yuan-settled oil sale (2023) represents the first major crack in this arrangement.Ready to see this live?
