New Issue: HSBC sells $1.2 million autocallable contingent income barrier notes on three indexes

By William Gullotti

Buffalo, N.Y., April 18 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $1.2 million of autocallable contingent income barrier notes due April 19, 2023 linked to the least performing of the Dow Jones industrial average, the Nasdaq-100 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent monthly coupon at an annual rate of 6% if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 75% of its initial level, on the observation date for that period.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly coupon observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon if each index finishes at or above its coupon barrier.

If the worst performer finishes below its coupon barrier but not below its 70% trigger level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the lowest performing index from its initial level.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
