New Issue: UBS sells $530,000 trigger callable step-up contingent yield notes on Nasdaq, Russell

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., Feb. 11 – UBS AG, London Branch priced $530,000 of trigger callable step-up contingent yield notes due Feb. 2, 2023 linked to the least performing of the Nasdaq-100 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on the related observation date. The contingent coupon’s annual rate is 5% initially, stepping up to 10% on Nov. 2, 2021.

The notes are callable at par plus any coupon due on any quarterly observation date other than the final one.

If the notes are not called and each index finishes at or above its downside threshold, 70% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the least-performing index finishes below its initial level.

UBS Securities LLC and UBS Investment Bank are the agents.
