By Marisa Wong
Morgantown, W.Va., April 29 – Credit Suisse AG priced $14 million of fixed-to-floating leveraged CMS curve and S&P 500 index-linked notes due April 29, 2031, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The coupon will be fixed at 10% initially. Beginning Oct. 29, 2017, it will accrue at 12 times the spread of the 30-year Constant Maturity Swap rate over the two-year CMS rate for each day that the index closes at or above the 75% reference level, up to a maximum coupon of 10% per year. Interest is payable monthly and cannot be less than zero.
If the index finishes at or above the barrier level, 50% of the initial index level, the payout at maturity will be par.
Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to any losses.
