New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $12.7 million callable contingent income securities on indexes

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 21 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $12.7 million of callable contingent income securities due Dec. 20, 2023 linked to the S&P 500 index, the Russell 2000 index and the Nasdaq-100 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 6% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 65% of its initial level, on the related observation date.

The notes are callable at par quarterly.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the least-performing index finishes below its knock-in level, 60% of its initial level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the least-performing index declines from its initial level.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC is acting as distributor.
