New Issue: Barclays prices $15.44 million 7% contingent yield trigger autocalls tied to two funds

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Dec. 6 – Barclays Bank plc priced $15.44 million of trigger callable contingent yield notes due Dec. 2, 2027 linked to the least performing of the iShares Russell 2000 exchange-traded fund and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate of 7% if each fund closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the review date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each fund closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly determination date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless either fund finishes below its 50% downside threshold, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing fund.

UBS Financial Services Inc. and Barclays are the agents.
