New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $869,000 contingent coupon callable yield notes on index, ETF

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 10 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $869,000 of contingent coupon callable yield notes due Aug. 3, 2020 linked to the lesser performing of the S&P 500 index and the SPDR S&P Biotech exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon of 9% per year unless either underlying asset closes below its 60% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either underlying finishes below its 60% knock-in level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the lesser-performing underlying.

Beginning Feb. 5, 2018, the notes will be callable at par on any contingent coupon payment date prior to maturity.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
