New Issue: Goldman prices $6.5 million callable monthly range accrual notes tied to Russell 2000

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, Feb. 1 - Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. priced $6.5 million of callable monthly Russell 2000 index-linked range accrual notes due Jan. 31, 2018, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will accrue at 6% for each day that the index closes at or above the interest trigger level, which is 80% of the initial level. Interest is payable monthly.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the index finishes below the 80% trigger level, in which case investors will share in losses beyond the buffer.

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

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
