BRASILIA, Oct 25 (Reuters) - Brazil's Treasury will receive 45 billion reais ($8.5 billion)from loans it has granted to development bank BNDES in the past, the Economy Ministry said on Tuesday, an action that will help reduce the country's gross debt. The amount still owed by BNDES totals 69.1 billion reais, and the bank will pay the Treasury 45 billion reais by November 30th, the ministry said in a statement. The remaining 24.1 billion reais will be paid off by November 30, 2023, it added. Between 2008 and 2015, under the administrations of the leftist Workers Party (PT), the Brazilian Treasury transferred more than 500 billion reais to the development bank, weakening public finances and squeezing commercial lenders out of capital markets. According to the latest data from the central bank, Brazilian gross debt stands at 77.5% of GDP.
