FX.co ★ UAE S&P Global Composite PMI Slips to 13-Month Low in June 2026

The United Arab Emirates’ private sector momentum eased in June 2026, as the S&P Global Composite PMI fell to 50.8 from 52.6 in May 2026. While the index remains above the 50.0 threshold that separates expansion from contraction, the latest reading points to a noticeable cooling in overall business activity.

The June figure suggests that growth in both output and new orders has moderated, with firms likely turning more cautious amid evolving economic conditions. The deceleration from May’s 52.6 level indicates that while the UAE economy continues to expand, it is doing so at a slower pace than earlier in the year.

Data for the June 2026 reading were last updated on 03 July 2026, confirming a trend of softening composite activity that investors and policymakers will be monitoring closely in the months ahead.
