Senaat noted a 20 percent year-over-year gain in net profit totaling to Dh453 million. That net profit is calculated before taxes, interest, depreciation and amortization, which has surpassed Dh1 billion for the first time ever. With that in mind, Senaat will contribute more to the economy by enhancing their portfolio of companies and starting new projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chairman of Senaat, <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20250122012614\/https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/HussainAlNowais\/\">Hussain Al Nowais<\/a>, says that strategic projects are in the works that will further diversify Abu Dhabi\u2019s industrial base and boost the GDP contribution of non-oil industrial sectors. As it currently stands, Senaat owns or partial owns six companies, which are comprised of Emirates Steel, Arkan Building Materials, National Petroleum Construction Company, Al Foah, Agthia and Ducab. But, two more companies are in development by Senaat and they are Taweelah Aluminum Extrusion Company and Al Gharbia Pipe Company. With that in mind, Senaat plans to invest Bh5bn in the industrial sector over the next two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This action plan is aimed to help the country reduce its dependence on oil revenues, which according to the Ministry of Economy, makes up roughly 30 percent of the country\u2019s GDP. Not only will this boost in the industrial sector help the country diversify away from oil revenues, but they also have plans to bolster the contributions of SMEs to 70 percent by the year 2020, whereas SMEs currently contribute about 60 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ministry\u2019s undersecretary said the country hopes to drastically reduce the oil sector\u2019s contribution to the GDP within the next 10 years through the diversification efforts that are taking off within the UAE. The government is hopeful that Senaat will be able to aid in the diversification process as they already have achieved portfolio amounts to Dh26.8 billion over the past 10 years and that includes investments over Dh18bn.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Abu Dhabi government\u2019s industrial holding company, Senaat, will be pouring more investments into the country\u2019s industrial sector after a reportedly high profit gain from the first-half of the fiscal year.
