Investors will receive the dividend after deducting any applicable processing fees as specified in the depositary agreement (if any). It is recommended to thoroughly review the terms and conditions before investing.

Product Category

DR / DRX

DR (Depositary Receipt) is a security representing foreign assets that is registered for trading just like a stock. The issuer of the DR, who is authorized by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), purchases the foreign stock and then offers it to Thai investors in Thai Baht. DRs can be traded directly through a Thai Stock Account.

DRx

DRx (Depositary Receipt x) is a type of security representing foreign assets, similar to a DR (Depositary Receipt), but can be considered a smaller version of a DR with the following differences:

It can be traded through an existing stock account, but you must express your intention to trade DRx, effectively creating a sub-account within your current trading account.
It requires a lower initial investment compared to a DR, as you can invest in amounts or fractions as small as 0.0001 units. This allows for investment in foreign stocks with both monetary amounts and fractional units.
