What sources are saying

BRB's crisis entered its accounting phase: financials overdue since March 2026 stall the R$ 6.6 billion FGC loan — which requires the statements before releasing the lifeline — leaving the bank reliant on the court-preserved inflows (R$ 394 million monthly from TJBA, per CNN) and the capitalization agreement with the DF government.

Fachin cancels the September 23 trial on Mendonça conduct in the Master case and sets no new date

Supreme Court president Edson Fachin removed from the docket on September 17 the September 23 session that would examine the request to investigate André Mendonça conduct as rapporteur of the Master case. The decision cites the direct link to the procedural question raised by Gilmar Mendes on September 15, whose judgment was interrupted by Flávio Dino request for review with a 4 to 3 score. The Federal Police scheduled the depositions of Daniel and Henrique Vorcaro for September 30.

STF votes 4 to 3 to judge Moraes and Mendonça separately, Dino asks for more time and the merits go undecided

At the September 15 extraordinary session, the STF plenary rejected by 4 votes to 3 the point of order raised by Gilmar Mendes to judge together the request to investigate Alexandre de Moraes and the request against André Mendonça: Edson Fachin, Mendonça, Luiz Fux and Cármen Lúcia voted to keep the cases separate, and Gilmar, Cristiano Zanin and Moraes for joint analysis; Flávio Dino asked for more time to review and the session was suspended without a vote on the merits of Petition 16,662. Dias Toffoli declared himself suspect and Nunes Marques impeded; Moraes accused Mendonça of having demanded that the Federal Police include his name in the Daniel Vorcaro plea deal, which Mendonça denied, and Cármen Lúcia said the court had caused civic unease. The Mendonça case stays scheduled for September 23.

Fachin takes over the Moraes-Vorcaro case after Mendonça returns the file and pulls the Master and INSS cases to the Supreme Court presidency

Supreme Court Chief Justice Edson Fachin took over on the night of September 12 as rapporteur of petition 16,662, on the relationship between Alexandre de Moraes and Daniel Vorcaro, after André Mendonça returned the file citing the judiciary statute and the court's rules, and ordered petitions 15,041 (Banco Master) and 15,556 (INSS) sent to the presidency, which halts individual rulings in those cases; he gave the Federal Police 24 hours to report on the custody of the material from Vorcaro's phone, denied Moraes's request to merge the trials and kept the September 15 session on Moraes and the September 23 session on Mendonça, ahead of the first round. September 13 and 14 update: the Federal Police said it can send identical copies of Vorcaro's phone, Zanin and Gilmar Mendes ordered the transfer, Mendonça warned of risks to the investigations and Fachin referred to the Prosecutor-General Moraes's request to open the petition listing Vorcaro's payments.

Federal District government asks the Supreme Court to return R$ 12.2 billion BRB paid Master and for access to the bank's records

The Federal District's Attorney General asked Supreme Court Justice André Mendonça to order the return to BRB of the R$ 12.2 billion paid to Banco Master, with tracing and freezing of flows originating at BRB and judicial deposit of the funds, plus access to Master's and the Reag fund's lifted bank and tax secrecy to identify the diverted funds; the petition, filed August 25 and made public September 11, invokes Federal Police reports on fraudulent portfolios intermediated by Tirreno and international asset-recovery conventions.

Federal Police conclude that not a single credit in the R$ 12.2 billion portfolios Master sold to BRB could be confirmed

A Federal Police report released on September 11, after the Supreme Court ordered secrecy lifted, concludes that not a single credit in the portfolios Banco Master sold to BRB could be validated with real backing: BRB transferred R$ 12.2 billion to Master between December 2024 and May 2025, R$ 4.05 billion of it after Central Bank questioning, despite formal warnings and contrary technical opinions. The Federal Police point to 182,000 operations concentrated in just 12 standardised amounts and more than 290,000 of 358,000 clients repeated from earlier assignments; those under investigation deny wrongdoing. September 13 update: the Federal Police total about R$ 17 billion in fictitious operations, with 2,700 automatically generated powers of attorney, and R$ 146.5 million in bribes to BRB's former president; the bank says it is a victim and cites a forensic audit.

Prosecutors seek to void police report on Vorcaro and Moraes and shelve threat complaint

The Prosecutor General's Office asked Justice André Mendonça to void the Federal Police report that identified messages between Daniel Vorcaro and Alexandre de Moraes, arguing that an inquiry into a justice would require authorization from the Supreme Court's full bench, and backed shelving the deposition in which Vorcaro reported threats, for lack of evidence, per Agência Brasil and Exame.

BRB overdue financials stall R$ 6.6 billion FGC loan

September 5 update: the Federal District government filed suit at the Supreme Court to force the Union to guarantee the FGC loan to BRB, per Correio Braziliense, Valor, Estadão and Poder360. BRB has had overdue financial statements since March 2026, and the delay stalls the release of the R$ 6.6 billion loan from deposit-guarantee fund FGC, which requires access to the statements before disbursing, per CNN Brasil and Bloomberg Línea. Per CNN, the Fux ruling keeping the TJBA's R$ 394 million monthly inflows eases but does not solve the liquidity squeeze.
