A recent Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) survey has revealed that the United Arab Emirates' non-oil business activity experienced a positive uptick in February. The survey, which tracks economic trends in the country, indicated an increase in business activity across various sectors.

According to the survey findings, the Emirates-Economy-PMI rose to a promising level, reflecting a boost in economic performance. This growth is particularly significant as it demonstrates a shift towards a more diversified economy, reducing the country's reliance on oil revenues.

The rise in non-oil business activity can be attributed to several factors, including increased consumer demand, improved market conditions, and enhanced business confidence. The UAE's efforts to promote entrepreneurship and innovation have also played a role in stimulating economic growth.

Furthermore, the survey highlighted that the manufacturing sector in the UAE experienced notable expansion during the month of February. This expansion is a positive sign for the country's industrial output and export capabilities.

Overall, the PMI survey results indicate a positive outlook for the UAE's economy, with non-oil sectors showing resilience and growth. The data suggests that the country is on track to achieve sustainable economic development and reduce its dependence on oil in the long term.
