New Issue: ABN Amro sells $1.5 million 24% knock-in reverse exchangeables linked to financial stocks

By Laura Lutz

Des Moines, Sept. 14 - ABN Amro Bank NV priced $1.5 million of 24% Knock-in Reverse Exchangeable Securities due March 17, 2008 linked to the worst-performing common stock in a financial stock basket, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket consists of the common stocks of Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.; Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.; Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.; and Morgan Stanley.

Interest is payable monthly.

If the daily closing price of each common stock stays above its knock-in level - 60% of its initial level - during the life of the notes and finishes above its initial level the payout at maturity will be par.

Otherwise, the payout will be a number of shares of the worst-performing stock equal to $1,000 divided by the initial price of that stock.

ABN Amro Inc. is the underwriter.
