Mendonça blocks R$ 1.7 billion in assets from Vorcaro's banks

Pt Noticias13 September 2026 at 01:40

The minister of the Supreme Federal Court (STF) Mendonça authorized the blocking of R$ 1.7 billion in assets of Daniel Vorcaro. The decision encompasses assets held abroad, including works of art by major names such as Picasso and Basquiat.

The blocked assets also include properties and vessels belonging to Vorcaro. The measure aims to ensure resources for possible compensations or reimbursements related to legal proceedings.

Daniel Vorcaro is the main interested party in the decision to block his own assets determined by the STF minister. The investigations against him involve financial movements that aroused the interest of the higher court.

The billion-dollar amount represents the total value of assets that were frozen by court decision. The works of art by Picasso and Basquiat are among the highest value assets identified in Vorcaro's estate abroad.

Why this matters

The STF decision represents a significant advance in an investigation involving high financial values and international assets, directly affecting Daniel Vorcaro and his associates. The measure may have an impact on future reparation actions and serves as a precedent for similar cases of asset freezing abroad.
