By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, June 1 – Barclays Bank plc priced $7.55 million of 0% trigger step securities due May 29, 2026 linked to an unequally weighted basket consisting of the Euro Stoxx 50 index (40% weight), the Nikkei 225 index (25% weight), FTSE 100 (17.5% weight), the Swiss Market index (10% weight) and the S&P/ASX 200 index (7.5% weight), according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the basket return is zero or positive, the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus the greater of the basket return and the step return of 38.05%.

Investors will receive par if the basket declines by 25% or less and will lose 1% for each 1% decline from its initial level if the basket falls more than 25%.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and Barclays are the agents.
