1. About Sponsored American Depositary Receipt (ADR) Program
ADR is the abbreviation for American Depositary Receipt. An ADR is a U.S. dollar denominated negotiable instrument issued in the U.S. by a depositary bank representing ownership of non-U.S. securities.
In a Sponsored ADR Program, a company issuing the underlying stock enters into a deposit agreement with one specific depositary bank, and ADRs are issued by the depositary bank once the rights and obligations of the issuer, depositary bank, and investors have been clarified.
