A UK manufacturing index climbed more than economists forecast in February as export demand rose, the Confederation of British Industry said yesterday.

A gauge of manufacturing orders rose to minus 14 from minus 20 in January, the UK's biggest business lobby said in a report in London. The median of 11 forecasts in a Bloomberg News survey was for minus 15. An index of export orders gained to minus 20 from minus 29.
