By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Oct. 2 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.2 million of autocallable contingent coupon notes due Sept. 26, 2023 linked to the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 9.65% if the underlying asset closes at or above its 75% coupon barrier on the observation date for that month.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the asset falls by more than 25%, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses.

The guarantor is Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
