New Issue: HSBC sells $400,000 autocallable barrier notes with step-up premium on indexes

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, March 10 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $400,000 of 0% autocallable barrier notes with step-up premium and step-down call threshold due Feb. 28, 2023 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 if each index closes at or above its initial level on the first annual observation date, 95% of its initial level on the second or 90% of the initial level on the third annual date. The call premium is 9.35% per year.

The payout will be par unless any index has finished below its 70% barrier level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the least-performing index from its initial level.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
