New Issue: Barclays prices $710,000 9% buffered phoenix autocalls on gold, biotech funds

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Aug. 2 – Barclays Bank plc priced $710,000 of buffered phoenix autocallable notes due Jan. 29, 2026 linked to the lesser performing of the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF and the VanEck Vectors Gold Miners ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 9% if each underlying asset closes at or above its 80% coupon barrier on the observation date for that month.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each asset closes at or above its initial level on any call valuation date other than the final date beginning with the 12th date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either underlying asset falls by more than 20%, in which case investors will be exposed to any losses of the worse performing fund beyond the 20% buffer.

Barclays is the agent.
