Speaking during a joint press conference with Theresa May in Tokyo, aired on Sky News, the leader called for the UK to have a “smooth and successful” divorce from the bloc.
He also called on the Prime Minister to ensure “transparency” between Britain and Japan to minimise any impact on Japanese businesses in the UK.
He told reporters: “The fact that after the decision on Brexit, Japanese companies are continuing to make new investments into the United Kingdom, which shows the profound trust that Japanese companies have toward the British economy.
“It is important for the world economy to realise [a] Brexit from the EU which is smooth and successful – with this in mind I have asked Prime Minister May for her continued consideration for ensuring transparency and predictability so as to minimise its impact on the business activities including the Japanese companies.
“We also agreed to have further enhancement of the dialog between the two nations for the strengthening of the bilateral economic relations after the Brexit.”
