New Issue: Barclays prices $1.25 million callable contingent payment notes linked to two indexes
By Toni Weeks
San Luis Obispo, Calif., Feb. 26 – Barclays Bank plc priced $1.25 million of callable contingent payment notes due Feb. 27, 2025 linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annualized rate of 10% if each underlying index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 75% of the initial level, on a quarterly valuation date. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid that quarter.
The notes are callable at par plus the contingent coupon on any interest payment date after one year.
The payout at maturity will be par unless the least-performing index finishes below the trigger level, 50% of the initial level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the least-performing index.
Barclays is the agent.
