New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $2.55 million autocallable securities on S&P 500, Euro Stoxx

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Jan. 9 – Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced $2.55 million of autocallable securities due Jan. 12, 2018 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus an annualized redemption premium of 13.55% if each underlying index closes at or above its trigger level on any of three annual observation dates beginning on Jan. 14, 2016. The trigger level is 100% of the initial level in 2016, 95% of the initial level in 2017 and 90% of the initial level in 2018.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par plus the underlying return of the lower-performing index. If that index finishes at or above the 75% knock-in level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will share in the losses of the lower-performing index.

Barclays is the placement agent.
