New Issue: HSBC sells $404,000 callable contingent income barrier notes on indexes

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., March 12 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $404,000 of callable contingent income barrier notes due March 4, 2025 linked to the least performing of the Nasdaq-100 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 will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 5.15% if each index closes at or above its coupon trigger level, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that period.

After one year, the notes will be callable at par plus any coupon due on any quarterly observation date other than the final date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any index finishes below its 60% barrier level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the lowest performing index.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
