The Bank of New York (BNY) today announced the launch of its new DR Performance Analytics. This addition to the Bank’s depositary receipt website, adrbny.com, provides interactive analytics designed to evaluate price performance and trading volume of all exchange-traded depositary receipts.
“DR Performance Analytics responds to the investment community’s growing need for enhanced depositary receipt market intelligence and offer users a more robust on-line experience by providing quantitative analytics to track and measure depositary receipt market activity,” says the bank. “Key performance tables are designed to spotlight the market’s top performers.

Home page highlights include intra-day spotlights on the three best price performers and the three most active issues. An additional feature is a comprehensive table of all exchange-listed DRs in the marketplace and their related intra-day and year-to-date price movements as well as the current day’s trading volume.”
