SK Hynix’s American Depositary Receipts (ADRs, ticker: SKHY) listed on the U.S. Nasdaq have launched a conversion mechanism with the company’s Korean domestic shares. Starting today, investors can convert ADRs to Korean shares or vice versa, subject to certain regulatory restrictions, offering global investors more flexible cross-border trading access. The move follows SK Hynix’s completion of its roughly $26.5 billion ADR issuance and listing in early July, further enhancing the stock’s global liquidity. Each ADR represents one-tenth of a Korean share; the U.S.-traded ADR currently still trades at a premium. It should be noted that actual conversion cannot be completed on the same day, as it requires procedures involving the depositary bank (Citibank), foreign exchange declaration, and administrative processes, typically taking several business days. Applications are primarily submitted via securities brokers to the Korea Securities Depository (KSD) and the depositary bank, while trade execution and arbitrage effectiveness are subject to the trading sessions of Korean and U.S. stocks (Korean shares trade during daytime hours, while U.S. shares trade at night).

According to Bitget’s market data, South Korea’s KOSPI index has narrowed its decline to 8.46% after previously falling more than 12%. SK Hynix is now down 11.5%, while Samsung Electronics is down 7.5%.
