New Issue: Bank of Montreal prices $352,000 contingent risk absolute return notes on EM ETF

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Jan. 4 – Bank of Montreal priced $352,000 of 0% contingent risk absolute return notes due Dec. 29, 2017 linked to the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A barrier event occurs if the fund closes below the barrier level, 73% of the initial level, on any day during the life of the notes.

If the fund finishes above its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the return.

If the fund return is zero or negative and a barrier event has not occurred, the payout will be par plus the absolute value of the fund return, up to a maximum return of 27%.

If the fund return is zero or negative and a barrier event has occurred, investors will be fully exposed to any losses.

BMO Capital Markets Corp. is the agent.
