Barclays plans notes linked to buffered, enhanced returns of three indexes via JPMorgan
By Laura Lutz
Des Moines, Jan. 15 - Barclays Bank plc plans to price notes due Jan. 30, 2009 linked to three buffered return enhanced indexes, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. are the placement agents.
The basket consists of the Dow Jones Euro Stoxx 50 index with a 45% weight, the FTSE 100 index with a 30% weight and the Nikkei 225 index with a 25% weight.
The payout at maturity will be equal to the sum of the three component payouts, each weighted as given above.
For each index with a positive return, the component payout will be equal to par plus 200% of any gain on that index, capped at a maximum component payout.
The maximum component payouts will be 113.8% for the Euro Stoxx 50, 113.5% for the FTSE 100 and 116.6% for the Nikkei 225.
For each index that declines by up to 10%, the component payout will be par. The component payout will be decreased by 1.1111% for each 1% that the index declines beyond 10%.
Taking into account the maximum component returns and the relative weights, the maximum payout at maturity is 114.41% of par.
The notes are expected to price on Jan. 18 and settle on Jan. 23.
