The document outlines a framework for cooperation in trade in professional services between BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa). It notes that the global professional services market is growing and there is potential to increase BRICS countries' share. The framework's vision is to build domestic capacity, enhance global competitiveness, and increase intra-BRICS trade in professional services. Key areas of cooperation include information exchange, capacity building, promotion activities, and pursuing recognition of professional qualifications. Implementation will involve consultation with professional bodies and developing action plans, with progress assessed annually.
