New Issue: Barclays sells $815,000 contingent coupon callables tied to biotech, oil funds

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 17 – Barclays Bank plc priced $815,000 of callable contingent coupon notes due May 17, 2022 linked to the least performing of the SPDR S&P Biotech ETF and the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production 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 11.5% if each underlying asset closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that period.

The notes are callable at par on any interest payment date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either underlying asset closes below its 50% trigger level, in which case investors will be exposed to any losses of the worse performing fund.
