Default present perfect progressive

Hello,

I have a problem Present perfect progressive focuses on the continuous activity, but can also be used when talking about situations which are just coming to an end or may change.
When I say:
Our business relations have been developing since 2001. - it is a focus on continuous activity, but are people not going to think that the business relations are coming to an end?

Thank you very much.

Hanka
