New Issue: HSBC prices $9.81 million 15.25% contingent income autocalls tied to GE

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Oct. 30 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $9.81 million of autocallable contingent income securities due April 17, 2019 linked to General Electric Co. stock, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 15.25% if the stock closes at or above its 80% coupon barrier on the observation date for that month.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the stock closes at or above its initial share price on any of the first five determination dates.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the stock finishes below its 80% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
