On Monday, the Chinese yuan was included in the IMF Special Drawing Rights (SDR) joining the US dollar, euro, British pound and the Japanese yen.
Kazbekov said the NDB is examining ways of entering the financial markets of other BRICS members, Brazil, Russia, India and South Africa.
"We want to find new flexible instruments of lending, to significantly reduce the time to consider a loan, and try to actively use the model of private-public partnership," he added.
There might be a lack of resources for long-term projects without the active attraction of private capital, according to the NDB Vice President.
NDB was established by the BRICS countries Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa in 2014. Its main goal is to promote sustainable development projects within the BRICS complementing the World Bank. In July the bank opened operations in Shanghai with start-up capital of $50 billion.

JJonesmx: China Focus: China takes over G20 presidency on Dec.1
Xinhua Finance 2015-12-01 10:05 BEIJINGshare
China will host the 2016 Group of Twenty (G20) summit in the eastern city of Hangzhou from Sept. 4 to 5, and formally take over the presidency of G20 on Dec. 1, 2015.
China's host of the summit shows not only a high degree of trust in China from the international community, but also China's sincere willingness to contribute more to the international community, Chinese President Xi Jinping said in a statement released on Monday night.
The G20 presidency rotates annually among its members. To ensure continuity, the presidency is supported by a "troika" made up of the current, immediate past and next host countries.
In 2015, the members of the "troika" are Turkey, Australia and China. Last year's G20 summit was held in Brisbane, Australia, and this year' s summit was in Antalya, Turkey.
In 2008, the first G20 summit was held in Washington, D.C., the United States, and the group played a key role in response to the global financial crisis.
Xi reviewed the past development of G20 and emphasized that the most valuable thing is the members' partnership, and cooperation will be an inevitable choice for all countries to meet challenges and realize development.
At present, the world economy and international economic cooperation face an important turning point, can we consolidate the foundation of economic recovery and growth to resist risks? Can we grasp the historic opportunity of technology progress and new industry revolution to make the global economy a new round of growth? The answer depends on our common choice and action, Xi said.
At the moment, the international community switches their attention to G20, Xi said, noting that as an important platform where developed countries, developing countries and emerging-market economies have cooperation, G20 plays a crucial role in promoting international economic cooperation.
Xi called on G20 to do more to promote the solution of some extrusive problems of global economy, so as to make efforts to realize the goal of strong, sustainable and balanced growth.
The president called on countries concerned to devote themselves to build an innovative, invigorated, interconnected and inclusive world economy, adding that they will invigorate the global economy and inject impetus to economic growth in relevant countries through innovation-driven development and structural reform.
Xi also called for building community of common destiny, strengthening intercommunication and interconnectivity, enhancing positive economic interaction, improving global economic and financial governance, reducing imbalanced and unequal development, aiming to make people all over the world enjoy benefits equally.
China stands ready to work with relevant countries to implement the consensus reached in the G20 summits of all previous years to initiate new phase of international economic cooperation, Xi said.
U.S. President Barack Obama voiced support for China's presidency, saying that he looks forward to attending the Hangzhou summit, he told Xi on the sidelines of the Antalya summit this month.
Hangzhou, a famous historical and cultural city, is a hub of innovation and vitality. With a population of nearly 8.9 million, it is the capital and largest city of Zhejiang Province. Zhejiang, well-known for its robust private businesses, ranked fourth among the 31 provincial-level regions on the Chinese mainland in terms of GDP in 2014.
Xi worked in Zhejiang between 2002 and 2007 as head of the provincial committee of the Communist Party of China. "I am looking forward to meeting you in Hangzhou in September next year." Xi said

Yecooche: New Fed rule limits its crisis bailout powers
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Federal Reserve Board on Monday adopted a rule that stops it from bailing out individual companies, a change that Congress demanded after the central bank's controversial decision to help rescue American International Group (AIG.N) and others during the financial crisis.
The rule is designed to help end the notion of individual financial companies being "too big to fail," by allowing the Fed to rescue only the broader financial system instead of individual companies. Under the rule, the Fed can make emergency loans that can potentially be used by at least five companies, but it cannot make more ad hoc rescues like its efforts to save AIG during the crisis.
The Fed adopted the rules after the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform law required the central bank to curtail emergency loans to individual companies and to insolvent companies. The final regulations define insolvent companies as those that had failed to pay "undisputed debts" in the previous 90 days.
Fed Governor Daniel Tarullo said during the meeting that the regulations would better balance the Fed's need to respond in a crisis with the concern that managers expecting a bailout in the worst-case scenario would be more likely to take big risks to try to turn their companies around in times of stress.
There has been "a longstanding tension of confronting moral hazard with wanting to retain flexibility," said Tarullo, the Fed's point person on regulatory issues.
As the financial crisis intensified in 2008, the Fed invoked its little-used emergency lending power to help stave off the failure of AIG. It also lent money to JPMorgan Chase & Co to help reduce the bank's potential losses from buying Bear Stearns, which was on the brink of collapse.
The Fed also enacted a series of more general emergency programs, in all providing $710 billion in loans and guarantees to a wide range of financial companies. Those programs were separate from the much larger Fed asset and bond purchases known as quantitative easing.
In September 2008, the Fed refused to bail out Lehman Brothers, which according to senior officials at the central bank was not solvent and therefore could not be rescued. The investment bank filed for bankruptcy in September 2008, even as other troubled financial companies, such as Citigroup Inc, (C.N) received multiple rescues from the government.
The Fed's crisis-era loans have been repaid and the guarantees ended, ultimately earning the central bank a net profit of $30 billion, according to a September Congressional Research Service review.
But critics have argued that the Fed overreached during the crisis, using its emergency authority in ways not clearly foreseen by lawmakers.
The Fed routinely lends money to banks on a short-term basis to smooth the operations of the financial system, which is part of its mandate. But since the 1930s, it has had the power to lend more broadly in a crisis.
