"Russia is actively participating in the work of the new financial institutions – the BRICS Bank and the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank. I am sure their activities will help to develop the Asia-Pacific region and will also help to strengthen the global financial system and make it more stable," Putin wrote in an article ahead of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in the Philippines.
