The sanctions are a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
这次制裁是因为俄罗斯入侵乌克兰。
Dubai, the Persian Gulf's financial and business center, has long been a point of interest for the very rich. And the United Arab Emirates' (UAE's) refusal to take sides between Western allies and Moscow has suggested to Russians that their money is safe there.
迪拜这个波斯湾的金融和商业中心长期以来一直是富豪的关注点。阿联酋拒绝在西方盟国和莫斯科之间站队，这向俄罗斯人表明，他们的资金在那里是安全的。
The UAE, which over the years has deepened its ties with Russia, has not agreed to observe sanctions put in place by Western nations. Its central bank has so far not issued guidance regarding Western sanctions.
阿联酋多年来一直在深化同俄罗斯关系，该国尚未同意遵守西方国家实施的制裁措施。该国央行迄今为止尚未发布有关西方制裁的指导方针。

这位高级私人银行家表示，在某些案例中，在私人银行开户的俄罗斯客户会在同一家银行的阿联酋分行开户。这位银行家补充说，其他人则在当地银行开户。
Russians are facing a weakened economy at home. They are also looking to put their money in investments, including real estate, and buying into funds that do not reveal ownership information, another financial source said.

A source at a Dubai bank said that funds from Russians are not being accepted for wealth management, though they could set up deposit accounts.

"They can do it," but the bank has high compliance hurdles to clear to accept Russian money, including evidence of where it came from, the source said.
这位消息人士表示，“他们可以这样做，”但是银行在接受俄罗斯资金方面存在很高的合规障碍，包括资金来源的证据。
The UAE's private wealth industry has not yet reached the size or complexity to fully take in wealth stored in Switzerland and other traditional money shelters, sources said.
消息人士称，阿联酋私人财富行业尚未达到可以完全吸收存在瑞士和其它传统资金避风港的财富的规模或复杂程度。
"They might take some, but I find it hard to imagine that they would take it all," an investment management professional said. "It's not just the servicing element, but the investment management which most of these banks lack."
一位投资管理专业人士表示：“他们可能会吸收一部分份额，但是很难想象他们可以全部吸收。这不仅仅是服务环境，而是这些银行中大多数都缺乏投资管理。”
