New Issue: HSBC prices $4.44 million contingent income callable notes tied to three indexes

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Aug. 18 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $4.44 million contingent income callable securities due Nov. 21, 2018 linked to the least performing of the Dow Jones industrial average, the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 7.15% if each index closes at or above its downside threshold level, 65% of its initial index level, on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes are callable at par on any quarterly determination date.

If each index finishes at or above its downside threshold level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon. If the final level of any index is less than its downside threshold level, investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the least-performing index.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
