New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $5.53 million trigger phoenix autocallables on Russell, EM indexes

By Jennifer Chiou

New York, April 30 - Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $5.53 million of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due April 30, 2024 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the MSCI Emerging Markets index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each index closes at or above its respective coupon barrier, 70%% of its initial level, on any quarterly observation date, the notes will pay a contingent coupon of 9% for that quarter.

If both indexes close at or above the initial level on any quarterly observation date after one year, the notes will be called at par of $10 plus the contingent coupon.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon, if any, unless either index finishes below the 50% trigger level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the least-performing index.

UBS Financial Services Inc. is the agent.
