Cross-border access, simplified

Increased globalization and investor appetite for diversification offer a unique opportunity for issuers looking to tap a new investor base, expand awareness, or raise capital using DRs. Issuers can have their shares traded over-the-counter or listed on U.S. stock exchanges in the form of American Depositary Receipts or on European exchanges in the form of Global Depositary Receipts.

The DR product is a negotiable security providing investors, brokers and issuers with a more convenient way to invest in the securities of a foreign issuer.

  • BNY Mellon manages local custody arrangements through its global network of banks
  • Familiar trade, clearance and settlement procedures
  • Quotes and dividend payments in U.S. dollars
  • Ability to acquire the underlying securities directly upon cancellation
  • Eligible within DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream

While DRs are generally used as a cross-border equity financing structure, the same structuring process can be expanded for debt instruments including Global Depositary Notes representing a sovereign entity’s locally traded debt.

A trusted partner 

 

BNY Mellon Depositary Receipts is independent from the influence of investment banking, trading and research, allowing us to support our DR clients’ access to a wider range of market opportunities. 

 

We have specialists dedicated to helping issuers fully realize market access with investor relations and ESG advisory solutions, Market Connect services and analytical solutions.
