Columbus, Ohio, March 17 – GS Finance Corp. priced $1.5 million of callable contingent coupon underlier-linked notes due March 9, 2023 linked to the Russell 2000 index, the S&P 500 index and the iShares MSCI EAFE ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes are guaranteed by Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at an annualized rate of 10.1% if each underlier closes at or above 80% of its initial level on the observation date for that period.
The notes are callable at par plus any coupon on any coupon payment date.
If the notes are not redeemed early, the payout at maturity will be par plus the coupon unless any underlier finishes below 60% of its initial level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the loss of the least performing underlier.
Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is the underwriter.
