An American Depositary Receipt (ADR) is a financial certificate that lets investors buy shares of a foreign company through U.S. stock markets, similar to buying a local wrapper that represents the underlying foreign shares. ADRs matter because they make investing in overseas companies easier and more liquid by trading in U.S. dollars and under U.S. market rules, while still carrying currency, regulatory, and country-specific risks that can affect share value.
