Seized Records Detail Banco Master’s R$129 Million Contract With Moraes Family Law Firm

The agreement assigned broad representation before oversight bodies, drawing scrutiny as investigators parse seized data.

Overview

  • The contract, signed on January 16, 2024, set monthly fees of R$3.6 million over three years to represent Banco Master and Daniel Vorcaro before the Central Bank, Receita Federal and Congress.
  • Its stated scope covered strategic, consultative and litigation work before the Judiciary, Ministério Público, Federal Police, PGFN, Cade and the Legislature.
  • Reporting says payments totaled about R$79 million through October 2025, then stopped when Banco Master entered extrajudicial liquidation after Central Bank intervention.
  • Evidence from Operação Compliance Zero located the contract’s values on Vorcaro’s cellphone, and messages cited in coverage indicate payments to the firm were treated as a priority.
  • The firm includes the STF minister’s two children, who joined Viviane Barci de Moraes in an April 2024 criminal complaint for Master, while regulators and the liquidator have not provided responses on the firm’s actions.
