New Issue: HSBC sells $405,000 callable contingent income buffered notes on Russell, S&P

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., May 13 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $405,000 of callable contingent income buffered securities due May 15, 2025 linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each six months, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 8% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 80% of its initial level, on the observation date that period.

If each index finishes at or above its buffer level, 80% of its initial level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon.

If any index finishes below its downside threshold, investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline of the lesser performing index beyond 20%.

The notes will be callable at par on any semiannual date.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
