Preference Shareholders
Certain preference shares are traded through a New York Stock Exchange listed American Depositary Receipt programme. Read about our various preference share programmes here.
For the most recent announcement around payment of preference shares, please follow the link to our announcements pages.
Our ADR preference shares are traded on the NYSE and the depository and paying agent is the Bank of New York. The depositary bank plays a key role in the process of issuance and cancellation of ADRs. It also maintains the ADR holder register and distributes the dividends in US dollars.
