Goldman Sachs has argued that, since the four BRIC countries are
developing rapidly, by 2050 their combined economies could eclipse the
combined economies of the current richest countries of the world. These
four countries, combined, currently account for more than a quarter of the
world's land area and more than 40% of the world's population.

South Africa received a formal invitation to join from China in 2010. Combined
GDP of the nations accounted for 18 percent of the world's total in 2010. South
Africa attended the summit as a member for the first time in 2011 in Sanya, Hainan
province, China. The group was renamed BRICS to reflect the now-five-nation
membership.
