The Venezuelan Vice Minister of Digital Economy, Banking, Insurance and Securities, Román Maniglia announced on Thursday, June 27, that the country assumed the vice presidency of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) Fund for International Development (OFID) for the period 2024-2025.

Venezuela shows its commitment to the development of emerging economies and will be at the head of said vice presidency to accompany, especially, “the countries of the global south, with a pluripolar and multicentric vision,” according to Maniglia in his account on social network X.

The official participated in the 45th OFID Ministerial Council, with a packed agenda that included “attendance at the III OFID Development Forum, the 188th Board of Governors and a bilateral meeting with Dr. Abdulhamid Alkhalifa, president of the OPEC Fund”, where Venezuela’s key role in this important financial multilateral was ratified.

It is timely to remember that the OPEC Fund for International Development “is the only development institution with a global mandate that exclusively provides financing from member countries to non-member countries.”
