Expanded U.S. CDR lineup provides more opportunities for Canadians to invest in global companies

TORONTO , April 29, 2025 /CNW/ - Today CIBC announced 15 new U.S. Canadian Depositary Receipts ("CDRs"), now listed on Cboe Canada. Introduced to investors over three years ago, CIBC has a total of 101 CDRs, spanning four countries. 

CDRs make it easy to invest in many of the world's largest companies – in Canadian dollars. Offered at a fraction of the price per share of the underlying reference share, and with a built-in notional currency hedge, CDRs provide investors with affordable access to global stocks while mitigating the currency risk associated with global investing.

CIBC's latest CDRs are based on well-known U.S. companies from sectors that are new to CIBC's platform, allowing Canadian investors to diversify their portfolios throughout investment cycles. The 15 CDRs are listed below with corresponding Cboe Canada ticker symbols:

• Abbott Labs CDR (CAD Hedged) – ABT
• Amgen CDR (CAD Hedged) – AMGN
• AutoZone CDR (CAD Hedged) – AZO
• Charles Schwab CDR (CAD Hedged) – SCHW
• Fiserv CDR (CAD Hedged) – FI
• GE Vernova CDR (CAD Hedged) – GEV
• Gilead Sciences CDR (CAD Hedged) – GILD
• KKR CDR (CAD Hedged) – KKR

• S&P Global CDR (CAD Hedged) – SPGI
• TJX CDR (CAD Hedged) – TJX
