New Issue: Goldman prices $1.34 million callable monthly range accrual notes on Russell 2000

By Marisa Wong

Madison, Wis., Oct. 2 - Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. priced $1.34 million of callable monthly Russell 2000 index-linked range accrual notes due Oct. 3, 2028, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The interest rate will be 8.75% per year multiplied by the proportion of days on which the index closes at or above the trigger level, which is 75% of the initial index level. Interest is payable monthly.

If the final index level is greater than or equal to 50% of the initial level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the final index level is less than the initial index level.

The notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date after one year.

Goldman Sachs & Co. is the underwriter.
