The ANBCB (National Association of Auditors of Brazil) states that it is difficult to understand the logic behind the decision of the minister, of the (Supreme Federal Court), to summon a civil servant from the local authority to face the former banker, of the .
According to the entity’s president, Thiago Rodrigues Cavalcanti, placing the Central Bank’s Director of Inspection, Ailton de Aquino, face to face with Vorcaro and the former president of the BRB (Bank of Brasília) Paulo Henrique Costa causes outrage among employees.
“What is the logic of a confrontation between Vorcaro, Paulo Costa and director Ailton? Why Ailton? How did Ailton arrive in this context? Why not Galípolo [presidente do BC]? Why not Renato?” he says, referring to Renato Gomes, director of organization of the BC’s financial system.
“Why not a group of servers, since it wasn’t Ailton who said: ‘Let’s go’. There is one. You can’t take a director and think he will understand everything that happened to him at all times.”
The BC asked Toffoli if Aquino had been called as a witness, investigated or offended. The minister replied that he maintained the confrontation for next Tuesday (30), during the Judiciary’s recess.
“Confronting a director is, let’s say, direct and perhaps even undue pressure on the bank’s employees. There are several other ways for you to gather more information in the process flow”, says Cavalcanti.
The president of the ANBCB also cites the position of ministers from the TCU (Federal Audit Court) on the liquidation of Master and says that movements in apparent defense of the institution worry and frustrate the .
“The TCU asked the Central Bank for clarification and said that [o processo de liquidação] it was very fast. The previous week, another TCU minister said it was too slow. On average, at TCU we’re ok, right?”, jokes Cavalcanti.
On the 19th, TCU minister Jhonatan de Jesus ordered the BC to explain itself about Master’s liquidation and suggested that the BC’s decision may have been extreme and hasty. The president of the TCU, Vital do Rêgo, mentioned in an interview with the MyNews channel the representation of the Public Ministry before the court to determine whether the Central Bank was slow to act.
The ANBCB is one of the defenders of the proposed amendment to the Constitution currently being processed in the Senate that would guarantee budgetary autonomy to the BC.
Last week, another representative entity, Sinal-SP (National Union of Central Bank Servers in São Paulo), stated that it also closely follows the statements by the TCU and the STF and reaffirmed “its confidence in the technical, integrity and responsible performance” of the BC.
