By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Oct. 7 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $4.52 million of 0% autocallable buffered Performance Leveraged Upside Securities due Oct. 3, 2018 linked to a basket of indexes, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket includes the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 50% weight, the Dow Jones industrial average with a 25% weight and the Russell 2000 index with a 25% weight.

The notes will be automatically called at par of $10 plus 15% if the basket’s closing level on March 30, 2017 is greater than or equal to 115% of the initial basket level.

If the notes are not called and the final basket level is greater than the initial basket level, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus 105% of the basket return. Investors will receive par if the basket declines by 11.7% or less and will lose 1% for every 1% that the basket declines beyond 11.7%.
