By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., May 1 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $16.25 million of callable contingent income securities due May 3, 2027 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a coupon at the rate of 7.5% per year if the index closes at or above the coupon barrier level, 75% of the initial index level, on the observation date for that quarter.

If the index finishes at or above the downside threshold level, 60% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par. If the index finishes below the downside threshold level, investors will be fully exposed to the index’s decline from its initial level.

Beginning April 30, 2018, the notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date.
