Brazil Economic Activity Up 10.53% January-April - Central Bank.

SAO PAULO (Dow Jones)--Economic activity in Brazil rose 10.53% January through April this year compared with the year-earlier period, according to the Brazilian Central Bank's new Index of Economic Activity, released Wednesday.

Economic activity in April rose by 0.27% compared with March, the central bank said.

This rapid increase is consistent with the 9% year-on-year growth in gross domestic product in the first quarter of 2010 reported earlier this month by Brazil's official statistical bureau, the IBGE.

The central bank unveiled its Index of Economic Activity this year as a new tool for tracking economic activity and supporting monetary policy decisions.

By showing changes in economic activity on a monthly basis, the new index supplements the quarterly GDP data reported by the IBGE.
