Olympia, Wash., Oct. 15 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.81 million of 0% autocallable index-linked notes due Oct. 17, 2023 tied to the Russell 2000 index and the Nasdaq-100 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.

The notes will be called at par plus a 9.35% annualized premium if the indexes close at or above their initial levels on any quarterly observation date.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par plus 44.4125% if each index closes at or above its initial level.
