• Depository receipts are instruments issued by international depositories (ODB), and they represent an interest in the underlying shares held by them in the issuer company (Indian Company). The shares are usually held by a domestic custodian on behalf of the depositories in turn issue the depository receipts, which entitle the holder of the receipts to get the underlying shares on demand.
• DRs are traded on Stock Exchanges in the US, Singapore, Luxembourg, London, etc.

AMERICAN DEPOSITORY RECEIPTS
• ADR is a dollar-denominated negotiable certificate. It represents a non-US company’s publicly traded equity. It was devised in the late 1920s to help Americans invest in overseas securities and to assist non-US companies wishing to have their stock traded in the American Markets.
• ADR were introduced as a result of of the complexities involved in buying shares in foreign countries and the difficulties associated with trading at different prices and currency values.

Levels of adr
• Level 1- Level 1 depositary receipts are the lowest level of sponsored ADRs that can be issued. When a company issues sponsored ADRs, it has one designated depositary who also acts as its transfer agent.
• Level 1 shares can only be traded on the OTC market and the company has minimal reporting requirements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission [SEC].
• Level 2- Level 2 depositary receipt programs are more complicated for a foreign company. When a foreign company wants to set up a Level 2 program, it must file a registration statement with the U.S. SEC and is under SEC regulation.
• The advantage that the company has by upgrading their program to Level 2 is that the shares can be listed on a U.S. stock exchange. These exchanges include the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NASDAQ, and the American Stock Exchange (AMEX).
• Level 3- A Level 3 American Depositary Receipt program is the highest level a foreign company can sponsor. Because of this distinction, the company is required to adhere to stricter rules that are similar to those followed by U.S. companies.
• Foreign companies with Level 3 programs will often issue materials that are more informative and are more accommodating to their U.S. shareholders because they rely on them for capital
GLOBAL DEPOSITORY RECEIPTS
• A bank certificate issued in more than one country for shares in a foreign company. The shares are held by a foreign branch of an international bank. The shares trade as domestic shares, but are offered for sale globally through the various bank branches.
• A financial instrument used by private markets to raise capital denominated in either U.S. dollars or Euros.
• The voting rights of the shares are exercised by the Depository as per the understanding between the issuing company and the GDR holders.
Types of gdr
• Rule 144A GDRs• Rule 144A GDRs are privately placed depositary
receipts which are issued and traded in accordance with Rule 144A. This rule was introduced by the SEC in April 1990 in part to stimulate capital raising in the US by non-US issuers.
• Non-US companies now have ready access to the US equity private placement market and may thus raise capital through the issue of Rule 144A GDRs without complying with the stringent SEC registration and reporting requirements.
• Regulation S• With the global integration of the major securities
markets, it is now commonplace to have fungible securities listed and cleared in more than one market.
• Just as ADRs allow non-US issuers to access the important US market, GDRs allow issuers to tap the European markets.
