LONDON, Nov 20: The euro hit new highs against the yen on Monday after G20 finance chiefs showed little concern about the weakness of Asian currencies at a weekend meeting, but the European currency was stable against the dollar, dealers said.
The euro was at $1.2809 in late-day trade against $1.2825 late Friday in New York.
The dollar was meanwhile trading at 118.16 yen, from 117.71 yen late on Friday.
