Japan's share index has been given a boost by a meeting between Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, his finance minister and the Bank of Japan chief to discuss ways to contain fallout from Brexit. 

The Nikkei was trading almost 300 points higher at 15,614 a short while ago, although that's still around 500 below where it was before the vote.

"The panic selling in global markets has eased," Chihiro Ohta, a senior strategist with SMBC Nikko Securities, said. 

"The fact that there's a meeting going on between the government and the Bank of Japan will serve as a psychological anchor."

Elsewhere, Sydney's ASX is 1% higher, while Hong Kong and Shanghai are both up 0.6%.

Business Secretary Sajid Javid held a Brexit summit with business leaders on Tuesday.

"Extremely sombre" and "concerned" is how one of the attendees, Ian Wright, head of the Food and Drinks Federation, describes the meeting.

"I don't think the level of concern had altered that much" by the end of the talks, he tells Radio 5 Live's Wake Up to Money.

"We all feel it's now clear the Remain camp had no plan B, and the Leave camp had no plan at all," he says. 

Mr Javid did give assurances that protecting the UK's access to the single market was a "number one priority... and we welcome that," Mr Wright adds.

The FTSE 100 ended 2.6% higher on Tuesday and the pound made modest gains. 

So is this a relief rally? 

Brenda Kelly, an independent markets analyst, says it's more like a "very small bounce".

The market hasn't "exactly re-traced where it was" after the Brexit vote, and further volatility - with swings up as well as down - is likely, she says.

Legal and General was one of eight insurers whose credit outlook was cut by credit rating agency Moody's last night.

The insurance group's chief executive Nigel Wilson (above) says the move was "wholly predictable".

"There's a high degree of uncertainty and that's a natural response from the ratings agencies," Mr Wilson tells Radio 5 Live's Wake up to Money.

"It doesn't mean there can't be a high degree of success."

The firm's appetite for investment across the UK is "undiminished", he says, adding that "the UK is a great place to invest".

Moody's also lowered its outlook on 12 UK banks overnight.
