By Wendy Van Sickle
Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 8 – GS Finance Corp. priced $772,000 of autocallable contingent coupon notes due July 8, 2019 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 7.5% per year if each index closes at or above 70% of its initial level on the observation date for that quarter.
The notes will be automatically called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly call observation date after six months.
The payout at maturity will be par unless either index falls by more than 30%, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the lesser-performing index from its initial level.
Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
