By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Feb. 6 – Barclays Bank plc priced $1.9 million of 0% market-linked step-up notes due Jan. 29, 2021 linked to a basket of indexes, according to an FWP with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket consists of the Euro Stoxx 50 index with a weight of 40%, the FTSE 100 index with a weight of 20%, the Nikkei Stock Average index with a weight of 20%, the Swiss Market index with a weight of 7.5%, the S&P/ASX 200 index with a weight of 7.5% and the Hang Seng index with a weight of 5%.

If the basket finishes at or above the step-up level – 130.45% of the initial level – the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus the index gain.
