Goldman Sachs plans notes tied to three currencies relative to dollar

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Jan. 17 - Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. plans to price 0% currency-linked notes due Feb. 1, 2013 linked to a basket of equally weighted currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The underlying currencies are the Brazilian real, Canadian dollar and Mexican peso.

If the basket gains by more than 7.55%, the payout at maturity will be par plus the return.

If the basket falls by less than 20% or gains by 7.55% or less, the payout will be par plus $1,075.50 for each $1,000 principal amount.

If the basket falls by more than 20%, the payout will be par plus the basket return, with full exposure to losses from the initial level.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC as dealer.

The notes will price on Jan. 20 and settle on Jan. 27.

The Cusip number is 38143UM81.
