New Issue: HSBC prices $8.89 million autocallable barrier notes linked to Euro Stoxx, Russell

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Sept. 23 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $8.89 million of 0% autocallable barrier notes with step-up premium and step-down call threshold due Sept. 24, 2024 linked to the lesser performing of the Euro Stoxx 50 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be called at par plus a call premium of 10% per year if each index closes at or above its call level on any quarterly observation date. For each index, the call threshold is 100% of its initial level on the first five observation dates and 95% of its initial level on the remaining observation dates, including the final valuation date.

If the final level of the lesser-performing index is less than its call threshold, and therefore not called, but greater than or equal to its barrier level, 70% of its initial level, the payout will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the lesser-performing index declines from its initial level.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
