An equity investment that represents a fraction of ownership in a corporation, giving the holder a right to a proportion of the company's profits through dividends and/or capital appreciation.
This equity security offers a higher claim on assets and earnings than common stock, typically paying fixed dividends. Preferred stock does not usually have the voting rights that common stock does but has priority over common stock in the event of liquidation.
ADRs represent securities of a foreign (non-U.S.) company that trades in U.S. financial markets. Securities under ADRs are issued by U.S. depositary banks and offer an easier and more cost-effective way to own shares in a foreign company.
EDRs are similar to ADRs but are used to trade shares of a foreign company in European markets. They allow European investors to purchase shares of foreign companies in their own market and currency.
GDRs are bank certificates issued in more than one country for shares in a foreign company. The shares are held by a foreign branch of an international bank, and the certificates are traded as domestic shares. GDRs enable investors to diversify their portfolios internationally.
