By Marisa Wong
Madison, Oct. 12 - HSBC USA Inc. plans to price 0% knock-out buffer notes due Oct. 31, 2012 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If a knock-out event occurs, the payout at maturity will be par plus the index return, with full exposure to losses.
If a knock-out event does not occur, the payout will be par plus the index return, subject to a floor of 6.5% and a cap of 20%.
The notes (Cusip: 4042K1QH9) will price on Oct. 14 and settle on Oct. 19.
