New Issue: HSBC prices $1.27 million contingent income autocalls on three indexes

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., March 19 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $1.27 million of autocallable contingent income notes due March 18, 2021 linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000 index, the S&P 500 index and the Nasdaq-100 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 9.2% if each index closes at or above the 80% coupon barrier on the observation date for that period.

The notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any of the first seven determination dates.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any underlying index finishes below its 80% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worst performing index.

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