New Issue: RBC sells $2 million contingent coupon barrier notes on bank stocks

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., April 22 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $2 million of contingent coupon barrier notes due April 1, 2022 linked to the least performing of the common stocks of Bank of America Corp., JPMorgan Chase & Co. and U.S. Bancorp, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 7.9% if each stock closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of the initial price, on the applicable quarterly observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless any stock finishes below its 70% trigger price, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% that the least-performing stock’s final price is less than its initial price.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the agent.
