District representatives call on the MP and government of DF to block Daniel Vorcaro from shareholder meeting of BRB

The PT bench in the DF Legislative Chamber is taking legal action to prevent Daniel Vorcaro from attending the upcoming BRB shareholder meeting due to concerns over his legitimacy in owning shares.

The PT bench in the Legislative Chamber of the Federal District has approached the Public Ministry and the Attorney General's Office to seek an injunction against Daniel Vorcaro, the owner of Banco Master, from participating in the forthcoming shareholders' meeting of Banco de Brasília (BRB) scheduled for March 18. This meeting aims to approve an increase in the bank's capital, which is deemed necessary due to the negative impact of failed transactions between BRB and Banco Master on BRB's financial statements.

The proposed capital increase is significant as it also requires approval from the Legislative Chamber, considering that the government of the Federal District is the majority shareholder of BRB. Governor Ibaneis Rocha's administration has suggested transferring public properties to BRB to facilitate this process, which will likely be debated in the upcoming legislative session. However, the legitimacy of Vorcaro's share acquisitions has been questioned, raising concerns among legislative representatives.

The outcome of this legal action and the subsequent legislative discussions will impact not only the governance of BRB but also highlight the ongoing scrutiny over financial dealings involving Banco Master. As the situation unfolds, it will reflect the broader issues of accountability and regulatory oversight in the banking sector within the region, especially in relation to public funds and stakeholder interests.
