New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $215,000 contingent coupon autocallables linked to biotech, tech ETFs

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., July 8 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $215,000 of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due June 28, 2021 linked to the lesser performing of the SPDR S&P Biotech exchange-traded fund and the Technology Select Sector SPDR fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 9% per year if each ETF closes at or above its knock-in level, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

Beginning Dec. 24, the notes will be automatically called at par if each ETF closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either ETF finishes below its knock-in level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the lesser-performing ETF declines from its initial share price.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
