New Issue: Barclays sells $2.8 million contingent income autocallable securities on Blackstone

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., April 4 – Barclays Bank plc priced $2.8 million of contingent income autocallable securities due Oct. 5, 2016 linked to the common units representing limited partner interests of the Blackstone Group LP, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent coupon each quarter at an annualized rate of 18.15% if Blackstone units close at or above the downside threshold level, 75% of the initial unit price, on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon if Blackstone units close at or above the initial unit price on any determination date other than the final one.

If the final unit price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will receive a number of Blackstone units equal to the return or the cash equivalent.

Barclays is the agent. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is a dealer.
