American Depositary Shares (ADSs) are U.S.-listed certificates issued by a bank that represent ownership of a specified number of a foreign company’s ordinary shares, letting U.S. investors buy and sell those interests in U.S. dollars on American markets. They matter because they make investing in overseas companies as easy as buying a domestic stock—streamlining currency, settlement, and recordkeeping—while still exposing investors to foreign-market risks like exchange rates and local regulations.
