Moraes requests new disclosure of Master bank records before Tuesday session

cbn13 September 2026 at 23:56

Minister Alexandre de Moraes asked STF President Edson Fachin to lift the secrecy on a new part of the investigation into Banco Master before Tuesday's ruling. Moraes claims that the material not yet made available to the ministers contains essential information for analyzing messages exchanged between him and Daniel Vorcaro, the bank's owner.

According to Moraes, Minister André Mendonça kept under seal documents that should have been shared with the other members of the court. Among the still-classified information is data about Banco Master's payment network, detailed in a Financial Intelligence Report from Coaf, as well as information obtained through banking and tax secrecy lifts and precautionary measures.

The Federal Police had already requested, in March, access to part of this material to detail the bank's payment system and funds linked to Master. Moraes's request comes after Fachin determined on Friday that part of the material should be shared with the ministers.

Why this matters

Brazilian readers are following an internal conflict at the STF regarding the transparency of classified documents in an investigation involving Banco Master and financial transactions under suspicion. Tuesday's ruling may reveal crucial information about alleged banking irregularities that have already prompted access requests from the Federal Police.
