Interesting! This is first hand or hear say?
Mine, hear say. Example. Just when the Russia Sanctions hit, people were explaining me how they continue business as usual with a certain (and probably not the only one) Russian company just by sending the payments to the official Russian office (not even trying to hide!) account in Switzerland or alternatively Egypt instead of for example Turkey and other nations which had to prohibit it because of EU pressure. Deliveries still go wherever the buyer wants them to go too.
IMO, if this is neutral, then even I could create an economically flourishing country this way :)
