New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $2.73 million 10.8% contingent coupon callables on two funds

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Feb. 26 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $2.73 million of callable contingent coupon notes due Aug. 9, 2019 linked to the lesser performing of the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production exchange-traded fund and the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 10.8% if each underlying component closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the review date for that quarter.

The notes are callable at par on any review date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either component finishes below its 60% knock-in level, in which case investors will be exposed to any losses of the worse performing fund.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
