New Issue: HSBC sells $2 million autocallable barrier notes on three ETF

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus Ohio, May 4 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $2 million of autocallable barrier notes with contingent return due March 29, 2022 linked to the SPDR Euro Stoxx 50 ETF, the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and the iShares China Large-Cap exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent semiannual coupon at an annual rate of 6.4% if each ETF closes at or above its 60% coupon barrier on the observation date.

The notes will be called at par if each ETF closes at or above its initial level on any observation date after one year.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless any underlying falls by more than 40%, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst performer.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
