The wife of Brazilian Supreme Court Minister Alexandre de Moraes has officially disclosed information about a controversial legal contract with Banco Master, revealing that the law firm Barci de Moraes, which includes her as a partner, signed a deal worth R$ 129 million over three years starting in 2024. This contract stipulated a monthly payment of R$ 3.5 million, which would conclude when the bank was liquidated in November 2025 by the Central Bank of Brazil.

Despite the significant financial implications of the contract, both Moraes and his legal firm had maintained silence since the agreement's details became public, leading to speculation about potential conflicts of interest involving the Minister, given his influential role within Brazil's judiciary. The law firm acknowledges it provided consulting and legal services to Banco Master during the agreement's duration, claiming to have held 94 work meetings, with 79 being face-to-face at the bank's headquarters, emphasizing the firm's active involvement in the bank's operations during a turbulent period.

The timing and magnitude of the contract have raised eyebrows and provoked discussions regarding accountability and ethics within Brazilian institutions, particularly in light of Minister Moraes's position in the Supreme Court. As the case develops, it may provoke more scrutiny over financial dealings involving prominent judicial figures in Brazil, raising questions about transparency and integrity in a system often viewed as intertwined with political and economic interests.
