New Issue: HSBC prices $1.43 million participation notes tied to S&P 500 via JPMorgan

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Nov. 3 - HSBC USA Inc. priced $1.43 million of 0% participation notes due Jan. 21, 2010 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. is the agent.

The notes have a face amount of $20.41 each.

The payout at maturity will be $1,000 multiplied by the index strike return, which is equal to the quotient of a) the final index level minus the strike level divided by b) the initial index level.

The initial index level is 1,041, which was an intraday level of the index on the pricing date, and the strike level is 1,100. As a result, the final index level must be greater than the strike level by at least 2.041% in order for investors to receive more than par at maturity.
