New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $1.5 million knock-out notes on VanEck ETFs

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, June 6 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1.5 million of 0% knock-out notes due June 12, 2019 linked to the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners exchange-traded fund and the VanEck Vectors Oil Services exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange.

If each ETF closes at or above 70% of its initial level each day during the life of the notes, the payout at maturity will be par plus 13.2%.

If either ETF has closed below knock-out level during the life of the notes, but the final level of the lowest performing ETF is above the knock-out level, investors will receive par plus the positive or negative return of the laggard ETF plus 13.2%, subject to a maximum gain of 13.2%.

Otherwise, investors will have 1-to-1 exposure to the final loss of the lesser-performing ETF.
