Question

Since American Depository Receipts (ADR) represent shares in foreign stocks, should they be reported with CIC 31 like common equity or with CIC 39 like other equity positions?

Answer

CIC Category 31 "Common equity" is limited to "Equity that represents basic property rights on corporations". Given the specific negotiable characteristics of American Depository Receipts (ADR) they should usually be classified as 39 "Other equity".​​
