The United States believes that UK and EU authorities have the required means to ensure financial stability following Thursday’s Brexit referendum, US Treasury Secretary Jack Lew said in a statement on Friday.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — According to the final referendum results, 51.9 percent of British voters, or 17.4 million people, decided to support Brexit, while about 16.1 million opposed it.

"We continue to monitor developments in financial markets," Lew stated, adding that he has been in close consultations with his UK and EU counterparts and financial market participants. "The UK and other policymakers have the tools necessary to support financial stability, which is key to economic growth."
