What is F-6 POS?

American Depositary Receipts are registered on Form F-6 by the depositary bank. When the deposit agreement changes, such as a new ADS to share ratio, a fee change or a new depositary, the registration is amended by post-effective amendment, which EDGAR tags F-6 POS.

Thousands of F-6 POS filings since 2002 make it a practical source for ADR ratio changes.

Who files

Depositary banks on behalf of foreign issuers' ADR programs.

When it is filed
