New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $518,000 10.5% contingent coupon autocalls tied to oil fund, Russell

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, March 13 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $518,000 of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due Aug. 28, 2019 linked to the least performing of the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 10.5% if each underlying asset closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that month.

The notes will be called at par if each asset closes at or above its initial level on any review date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either asset ever closes below its 70% knock-in level during the life of the notes, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing fund or index.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
