ADR

American Depositary receipt. A negotiable Certificate issued by a U.S. bank representing a specific number of shares of a foreign stock traded on a U.S. stock Exchange. ADRs make it easier for Americans to invest in foreign companies, due to the widespread availability of dollar-denominated price information, lower Transaction costs, and timely dividend distributions.
