BRASILIA (Reuters) - A dinner between Brazil's Workers Party (PT) leader Gleisi Hoffmann and 30 businessmen on Monday ended with two pieces of information well-received by the latter: The party will work with central bank chief Roberto Campos Neto and there is no thought of controlling fuel prices if former president Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva wins the October election.

The event, hosted by think tank Esfera Brasil, brought together Hoffmann and heavyweights such as retail tycoon Abilio Diniz and Guararapes Chairman Flavio Rocha, who discussed economic policies to be adopted by a potential new Lula administration.
