Key Terms

depositary share financial

A depositary share is a special type of stock that represents ownership in a company but is traded on the stock market like regular shares. It often makes it easier for people to buy and sell shares of companies from other countries or smaller companies that don’t list directly on big exchanges.

noncumulative perpetual preferred stock financial

A noncumulative perpetual preferred stock is a type of equity that pays regular dividends indefinitely but has no maturity date, and if the issuer skips a dividend payment those missed payments are not owed later. It sits above common shares in priority for income and liquidation, so it can offer steady income like a bond while still carrying equity risk. Investors should note the permanent nature and the risk that skipped dividends are permanently lost, making yield and issuer stability key considerations.
