New Issue: HSBC prices $7.89 million step-up notes linked to Dow

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Nov. 29 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $7.89 million of 0% market-linked step-up notes due Nov. 22, 2019 linked to the Dow Jones industrial average, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The initial index level will be the lowest closing level of the index during the period from and including the pricing date to and including Dec. 22.

If the final index level is greater than the step-up value, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus the index return. The step-up value is 121.2% of the initial index level.

If the final index level is greater than or equal to the initial level but less than or equal to the step-up value, the payout will be par plus the step-up payment, 21.2%.

If the final index level is less than the initial level, investors will have one-to-one exposure to the decline.

BofA Merrill Lynch is the agent.
