Japan's Aso will hold news conference at 4.15 GMT

Japanese finance minister Taro Aso has called in a news conference at 0415 GMT, in light of the Brexit-led slump in USD/JPY to more than 2-yr lows off 98.95.

Markets are expecting Aso to talk on the likelihood of intervention at the conference, with BOJ expected to intervene to stall the yen’s rise.
