New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $1.57 million contingent coupon callable yield notes on three stocks

By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., Nov. 18 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch, priced $1.57 million of contingent coupon callable yield notes due Aug. 12, 2024 to the least performing of the stocks of Bank of America Corp., McDonald’s Corp. and Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes pay a contingent monthly coupon at the rate of 17.24% per year if each stock closes at or above its coupon barrier price, 70% of its initial price, on the related observation date.

The notes may be called at par plus any contingent coupon due at the issuer’s option on any quarterly early redemption date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon if each stock finishes at or above its coupon barrier.

If the worst performer finishes below the coupon barrier but at or above its 60% knock-in price, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, in which case investors will be exposed to the decline of the worst performer from its initial price.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the placement agent.
