HSBC plans five-year market-linked step-up notes tied to S&P 500

By Marisa Wong

Morgantown, W.Va., Nov. 7 – HSBC USA Inc. plans to price 0% market-linked step-up notes due November 2021 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to an FWP filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If the index finishes above the step-up level – 133% to 139% of the initial level – the payout at maturity will be par of $10 plus the index gain.

If the index finishes flat or gains by up to the step-up level, the payout will be par plus the step-up payment of 33% to 39%.

If the index falls by up to 10%, the payout will be par.

Investors will be exposed to any losses beyond 10%.

BofA Merrill Lynch is the agent.

The notes will price and settle in November.
