Barclays plans three-year market-tied step-up autocallables on S&P 500

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Dec. 29 – Barclays Bank plc plans to price autocallable market-linked step-up notes due January 2019 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to an FWP with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be called at an annual call premium of 8% to 9% if the index closes at or above its initial level on the either annual call date.

If the index finishes at or above the step-up value – 125% of the initial level – the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus the index gain.

If the index is unchanged or gains by up to the step-up level, the payout will be par plus the step-up payment of 25%.

Investors will be exposed to any losses.

BofA Merrill Lynch is the agent.

The notes will price and settle in January.
