An American depositary receipt (ADR) is a certificate that represents shares of a foreign company traded on U.S. stock exchanges. It allows investors to buy and sell parts of a foreign company's stock easily, much like purchasing shares of a company based in their own country. ADRs make international investing more convenient and accessible for U.S. investors.

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.
A CUSIP is a nine-character alphanumeric code that uniquely identifies a U.S. or Canadian financial security—such as a stock, bond, or fund share—like a Social Security number for an investment. It matters to investors because brokers, exchanges and record-keepers use the CUSIP to match trades, track ownership, settle transactions and pull accurate records, reducing errors and ensuring money and securities go to the right place.
A 12-character International Securities Identification Number (ISIN) is a unique code that acts like a passport for a specific stock, bond or other tradable security so it can be identified worldwide. Investors and systems use it to ensure they are buying, selling and tracking the exact same instrument across exchanges and data feeds, which prevents costly mix-ups and makes portfolio reporting, settlement and regulatory checks simpler and more reliable.
