New Issue: Goldman Sachs lifts notes linked to S&P bank, financial indexes to $21.61 million for Svensk

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., March 12 - AB Svensk Exportkredit priced an additional $4.36 million of 0% outperformance notes due Sept. 18, 2009 linked to a long position in the S&P 500 Banks index and a short position in the S&P Financial Select Sector index via Goldman, Sachs & Co., according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes priced at 96.98 and bring the total issue size to $21.61 million. The company originally priced $17.25 million of the notes at 96.75 on March 4.

If the increase in the long index exceeds that of the short index or if the decrease in the long index is less than that of the short index, the payout at maturity will be par plus the difference between the two index returns.

If the increase in the long index is less than that of the short index or if the decrease in the long index is greater than that of the short index, the payout at maturity will be par minus the difference between the two index returns.
