New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $9.95 million contingent coupon autocallable yield notes on ETFs

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 29 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $9.95 million of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due Dec. 27, 2019 linked to the lesser performing of the SPDR S&P Retail exchange-traded fund, the Technology Select Sector SPDR fund and the SPDR S&P Bank exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a quarterly contingent coupon at an annual rate of 13.25% if each fund closes at or above its coupon barrier, 75% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each fund closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly trigger observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any fund finishes below its 75% knock-in level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the least-performing fund.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
