New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $504,000 contingent coupon autocallable yield notes on biotech ETF

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 27 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $504,000 of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due Aug. 27, 2019 linked to the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each month the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 9.5% if the fund closes at or above the coupon barrier, 70% of the initial level, for that month.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the fund closes at or above its initial price on any quarterly trigger observation date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the shares finish below the initial level and ever close below the 70% knock-in level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the losses.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
