New Issue: HSBC prices $6.79 million autocallable securities with contingent coupon on three indexes

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, Dec. 27 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $6.79 million of autocallable securities with contingent coupon and contingent downside due Dec. 14, 2023 linked to the least performing of the S&P 500 index, the Russell 2000 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 7% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon trigger, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

Beginning June 11, 2020 and ending September 11, 2023, the notes will be called at par plus the coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly call observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par, plus any coupon, unless any index finishes below its 70% barrier level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the least-performing index declines from its initial level.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities are the agents.
