Investing.com - Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe told Finance Minister Taro Aso on Monday to watch currency markets "ever more closely" and take steps if necessary, in the wake of Britain's historic vote to leave the European Union.
"Risks and uncertainty remain in financial markets," Abe said.
"We need to continue to work toward market stability," he said, signaling Tokyo's readiness to conduct yen-selling intervention in the market if it deems yen rises as excessive.
