New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $1.74 million contingent coupon callable yield notes on ETFs

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 15 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1.74 million of contingent coupon callable yield notes due Jan. 17, 2023 linked to the least performing of the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF and the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a semiannually contingent coupon at an annual rate of 16.6% if each fund closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that period.

Credit Suisse may redeem the notes at par plus the coupon on any contingent coupon payment date after a year.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either fund finishes below its 70% knock-in level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the least-performing fund.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
