New Issue: RBC prices $3.56 million trigger autocallable contingent yield notes on indexes

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 3 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $3.56 million of 0% trigger autocallable contingent yield notes due Jan. 30, 2020 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of between 8.13% if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date after six months.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless either index closes below the downside threshold level, 70% of the initial level, during the life of the notes, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline from the initial level of the worse performing index.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Financial Services Inc. are the underwriters.
