New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $1.05 million step-up contingent coupon callable notes on S&P 500

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., Jan. 29 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1.05 million of step-up contingent coupon callable yield notes due Jan. 30, 2030 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent coupon if the index closes at or above its barrier level, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that interest period. The coupon will be 7% initially, stepping up to 8% on April 30, 2020 and to 9% on April 30, 2025. Interest is payable quarterly.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the index finishes below its 50% knock-in level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to losses.

The notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date.

Incapital LLC is the agent.
