The impact of the three times of rate raise of the U.S. Federal Reserve on China's cross-border capital flow is dwindling gradually, said a State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) spokeswoman on Thursday.

"Our cross-border capital flow shows that the impact of the three times of rate raise of the U.S. Federal Reserve is dwindling gradually. Before the third raise in March, the dollar index rose 2.7 percent at most whereas our foreign reserve in the first quarter decreased slightly by 1.4 billion U.S. dollars," said Wang Chunying, the spokeswoman of SAFE.

China's foreign reserve increased in March for two successive months.

"That Fed's three rate raises have exerted different impact shows our greatly improved coping capacity and adaptability. Compared with the first rate raise by the end of 2015, our domestic economic operation is more stable now. The expectation on the depreciation of the Chinese currency, or the yuan, against U.S. dollar has greatly weakened," said Wang, adding that they are confident in face of Fed's rate raise.
