ZURICH (Thomson Financial) - The University of Zurich's Centre for Economic Research (KOF) said its economic barometer rose to 1.96 points in May from 1.90 points in April and 1.84 points in March.

The figure comes in at the upper end of economists' forecasts, which had seen the index coming in at between 1.8 points and 1.97 points.

The centre said the index points to further acceleration and solid performance for the Swiss economy.
