New Issue: Barclays prices $3.04 million of phoenix autocallables tied to Russell, S&P

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 3 – Barclays Bank plc priced $3.04 million of phoenix autocallable notes due Sept. 29, 2020 linked to the lesser performing of the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 6.1% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 60% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date after one year.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon, if any, unless either index finishes below its barrier level of 60%, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the lesser-performing index finishes below its initial level.

Barclays is the agent.
