Brazil: Ex-Governor Zema's Decree Benefited Miner Linked to Banker Vorcaro

A decree by former Minas Gerais governor Romeu Zema authorized mining expansion for Cedro, a company linked to Lucas Kallas, an associate of banker Daniel Vorcaro. The company asserts the process was legal, but the decree raises questions about political favoritism and regulatory capture. The development is part of an ongoing corruption investigation in Brazil.
