American Depositary Receipt (ADR) information

On 20 July 2017, Air New Zealand launched a sponsored Level 1 American Depositary Receipt (ADR) programme with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas.

The depositary bank plays a key role in issuance as well as cancellation of ADRs. It also maintains the ADR holder register and distributes the dividends to ADR holders in U.S. dollars.

Air New Zealand Limited's programme is sponsored by Deutsche Bank. As a depositary bank, Deutsche Bank performs the following roles:

  • Issues and cancels Air New Zealand Limited ADRs
  • Records and maintains the register of ADR holders
  • Is the stock transfer agent
  • Distributes dividends in US dollars (if applicable)
  • Facilitates the proxy voting process and exercises the voting rights on behalf of ADR holders (if applicable)
  • Distributes company circulars and Annual General Meeting documentation (if applicable)

For those holders which are not registered because their shares are held through a 'street name' (or nominee account), your nominee will receive company documents from time to time from Deutsche Bank to distribute to you. You need to make arrangements with your nominee if you wish to receive such documents and to be able to exercise your vote through the depository bank at general meetings (if applicable).
