Olympia, Wash., Oct. 8 – GS Finance Corp. priced $2.25 million of callable contingent coupon notes due April 7, 2022 linked to the Russell 2000 index, the Euro Stoxx 50 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
The notes pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 9% if each index closes at or above 70% of its initial level on the observation date.
The notes are callable at par on any coupon payment date beginning January 2019.
The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless any index finishes below 70% of its initial level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the least performing index.
