New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $1.32 million contingent coupon callable yield notes on EM, banking ETFs

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 13 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1.32 million of contingent coupon callable yield notes due June 13, 2019 linked to the lowest performing of the SPDR S&P Regional Banking exchange-traded fund and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a monthly coupon at an annualized rate of 8.4% if each ETF closes at or above its barrier level, 70% of its initial level, on a monthly observation date.

The notes are callable at par on any observation date after three months.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either ETF finishes below its 60% knock-in level, in which case investors will be exposed to any losses of the lesser-performing ETF.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
