On an annual basis, exports logged a growth of 0.8 percent, slower than January's 2.6 percent increase. Likewise, import growth eased to 4.1 percent from 8.9 percent.

On a seasonally adjusted basis, the trade surplus rose to EUR 4.68 billion in February from EUR 3.68 billion in January. Both exports and imports climbed 3.5 percent and 1.7 percent, respectively, compared to the previous month.
