At the time of his greatest political circulation, banker Daniel Vorcaro organized dinners for authorities and party leaders in a mansion valued at 36 million reais, located in Lago Sul, an upscale neighborhood of Brasilia. On at least one of these evenings, the Minister of the Federal Court, Alexandre de Moraes, was present.
The meeting took place in the last quarter of last year, a time when a contract worth 129 million reais was already in force between Banco Master and the office of lawyer Viviane Barci de Moraes, wife of the minister. Moraes attended the dinner alone with his wife and shared conversations with influential Centrão politicians, deputies, former ministers and the host.
The property occupies two of four lots in a gated condominium in Lago Sul. There are 1,700 square meters of built area and 4,300 square meters of private area, in a project signed in 2012 by the Studio Hub office. The house became known behind the scenes in Brasilia as a place for private meetings between Vorcaro and prominent figures in national politics.
Among the visitors already mentioned are senator Ciro Nogueira and deputy Hugo Motta. Until recently, Vorcaro claimed to be merely a tenant of the property.
This weekend, the mansion made news after Federal Revenue Service data indicated ties between Vorcaro and Super Empreendimentos e Participações SA, the company that officially owns the property – contradicting previous versions presented by the banker.
He was arrested in November by the federal police, during Operation Compliance Zero, which is investigating the issuance of credit securities considered false by the institutions of the national financial system. He was arrested at Guarulhos airport as he was preparing to leave the country. His partner Augusto Lima was also arrested.
According to the PF, the investigations began in 2024, following a request from the Federal Public Prosecutor’s Office, and are investigating the alleged manufacturing of credit wallets without adequate technical support. Those under investigation could be charged with fraudulent management, reckless management and criminal organization.
