When is the Nestlé ADR dividend paid?

The ADR dividend is paid on average one month after the dividend on the ordinary share. Most ADR holders are US residents and are entitled to a favorable withholding tax rate. After the payment of the dividend on the ordinary share, there is an extensive process between Citibank (Nestlé’s ADR depositary bank) and the Swiss Tax Authorities that enables these US residents to benefit from a favorable 15% withholding tax rate. This results in the delayed payment of the dividend to ADR holders.
