New Issue: BofA sells $4.28 million leveraged buffered notes tied to index basket

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 27 – BofA Finance LLC priced $4.28 million of 0% leveraged buffered notes due April 21, 2021 linked to a basket of indexes, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Bank of America Corp.

The basket consists of the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 36% weight, the Topix index with a 27% weight, the FTSE 100 index with a 20% weight, the Swiss Market index with a 9% weight and the S&P/ASX 200 index with an 8% weight.

If the basket return is positive, the payout at maturity will be par plus 4 times the basket gain, subject to a maximum settlement amount of $1,422 for each $1,000 principal amount of notes.

Investors will receive par if the basket declines by 10% or less and will lose 1.1111% for every 1% that it declines beyond 10%.
