Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 13 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.89 million of callable contingent coupon notes due Dec. 11, 2024 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 pay a contingent coupon at a rate of 5.25% per year if each index closes at or above 70% of its initial level on the observation date for that period.
The notes are callable at par plus any coupon on any coupon payment date beginning in December 2020.
If the notes are not redeemed, the payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below 70% of its initial level, in which case investors will be exposed to the loss of the least performing index.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
