New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $4.07 million contingent coupon notes linked to biotech ETF, S&P

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, July 26 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $4.07 million of contingent coupon callable yield notes due July 29, 2019 linked to the S&P 500 index and the SPDR S&P Biotech exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at a rate of 11.75% a year unless either underlying component closes below its barrier level, 60% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either underlying component finishes below its barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the lesser-performing underlying component.

Beginning Jan. 30, 2017, the notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
