Brazil's Supreme Federal Court Lifts Secrecy on Master Bank Case Inquiry

CNN Portugal11 September 2026 at 06:53

Brazil's Supreme Federal Court decided to lift the secrecy on the inquiry related to the Master Bank case. The decision was made by the court's presidency, which based the request on the proximity of an extraordinary session called for five days from now. In that session, issues related to the case will be debated.

The case involves Master Bank, a company that is under investigation within the scope of the inquiry in question. The decision to lift secrecy now allows public access to the information and documents that were previously under court seal.

The mentioned extraordinary session will have as its main objective debating procedural and substantive issues related to the case. The lifting of secrecy occurs as preparation for this trial, allowing the parties and society access to the inquiry's content.

The measure represents an advance in the transparency of the process, which is being handled in the country's highest court. The expectation is that the extraordinary session may bring important definitions regarding the progress of the case involving Master Bank.
