Greece's central government recorded a better-than-targeted primary budget surplus of 2.43 billion euros ($2.67 billion) in the first four months of the year due to higher revenues, finance ministry data showed on Monday.
The government had targeted a primary budget deficit- which excludes debt-servicing costs, social security and local administration budgets - of 869 million euros for the January-April period.
