By Susanna Moon
Chicago, Jan. 30 - Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $750,000 of high/low coupon callable yield notes due July 31, 2015 linked to the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund and the United States Oil Fund, LP, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
A knock-in event occurs if either underlying fund closes at or below 70% of its initial level on any day during the life of the notes.
If a knock-in event never occurs, the coupon will be 8%. If a knock-in event occurs during any quarterly observation period, the coupon for that interest period and each subsequent interest period will be 1%. Interest is payable quarterly.
The notes are callable at par on any interest payment date.
The payout at maturity will be par unless a knock-in event occurs, in which case investors will receive par plus the return of the worst performing fund, up to a maximum payout of par.
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
