German exports rebounded in March by 0.9% on the previous month, the federal statistics office reported on Tuesday.
Analysts’ polled by Reuters had expected exports to increase by 0.4%.
The March rise followed a revised 1.6% decline in exports in February, which had prompted Germany’s BGA trade association to warn that falling competitiveness and rising protectionism were taking their toll on the country’s export-focused economy.
The statistics office publishes more detailed economic data on its website.
