By Toni Weeks

San Diego, Aug. 26 - AB Svensk Exportkredit priced $1.78 million of 0% buffered basket-linked notes due Sept. 2, 2014 linked to an unequally weighted basket of two indexes, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket is comprised of the MSCI AC World index with a 70% weight and the S&P 500 index with a 30% weight.

If the basket return is positive, the payout at maturity will be par plus the basket return, up to a maximum payment of $1,317.50 per $1,000 note.

Investors will receive par if the basket declines by up to 25% and will lose 1.3333% for every 1% drop beyond 25%.

The initial level for the MSCI AC World index is lower than the closing level, 298.93, on the pricing date, and the initial level for the S&P 500 index is lower than the closing level, 1,177.6, on the pricing date.
