New Issue: Barclays prices $950,000 6.3% phoenix autocalls tied to S&P, Russell ETFs

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 16 – Barclays Bank plc priced $950,000 of phoenix autocallable notes due Aug. 9, 2023 linked to the lesser performing of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF and the iShares Russell 2000 ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent semiannual coupon at an annual rate of 7% if each underlying asset closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that period.

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

The payout at maturity will be par unless either ETF finishes below the 65% barrier level, in which case investors will be exposed to any losses of the worse performing ETF.

Barclays is the agent.
