Depositary Receipts (DR) is a financial instrument that allows Thai investors to access foreign stocks or ETFs more easily. These can be traded through the Thai stock market using your existing brokerage account—no need to open a new one. Transactions are done in Thai Baht, and investors receive similar benefits as direct investments in foreign securities. This makes it possible for Thai investors to tap into global growth opportunities with foreign stocks or ETFs through the Thai stock market.
Investors can trade DRs in two sessions:
