New Issue: Barclays prices $595,000 of step-up callable contingent payment notes on indexes

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 31 – Barclays Bank plc priced $595,000 of step-up callable contingent payment notes due Oct. 31, 2024 linked to the lesser performing of the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate if each index closes above the 72.5% barrier on the valuation date for that quarter. The coupon will be 6% initially, stepping up to 10% in October 2022.

The notes are callable at par plus the contingent coupon on any interest payment.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below the 60% barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index.

Barclays is the agent.
