By Sarah Lizee
Olympia, Wash., Aug. 11 – Bank of Nova Scotia priced $9.77 million of 0% autocallable market-linked step-up notes due July 27, 2023 tied to a basket of indexes, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The basket consists of the Euro Stoxx 50 index with an initial weight of 40%, the FTSE 100 index and the Nikkei Stock Average index each with an initial weight of 20%, the Swiss Market index and the S&P/ASX 200 index each with an initial weight of 7.5% and the Hang Seng index with an initial weight of 5%.
The notes will be called at par of $10 plus a premium of 9.5% per year if the basket's closing level is greater than or equal to the initial level on any annual observation date.
If the basket finishes above the step-up value, 135% of the initial value, the payout at maturity will be par plus the basket return.
If the basket return is zero or positive but the basket finishes at or below the step-up value, the payout will be par plus the step-up payment of 35%.
