New Issue: HSBC prices $8.38 million contingent income autocallables on Blackstone

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., June 20 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $8.38 million of contingent income autocallable securities due June 19, 2020 linked to the common units of Blackstone Group LP, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If Blackstone units close at or above the coupon barrier level, 80% of the initial share price, on a quarterly determination date, the notes will pay a contingent payment that quarter at an annualized rate of 10.05%.

The notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon if Blackstone units close at or above the initial unit price on any of the first 11 determination dates beginning on Sept. 18, 2017.

If the final unit price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, 80% of the initial unit price, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the final unit price is less than the initial unit price.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is handling distribution.
