New Issue: Barclays prices $2.69 million contingent coupon callables on index, fund

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, July 27 – Barclays Bank plc priced $2.69 million of callable contingent coupon notes due July 23, 2024 linked to the least performing of the S&P 500 index and the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent semiannual coupon at an annualized rate of 9.5% if each component closes at or above its 60% coupon barrier on the observation date for that period.

The notes are callable at par on any interest payment date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless either component finishes below its 60% barrier level, in which case investors will be exposed to the decline of the worse performing component.

Barclays is the agent.
