New Issue: HSBC prices $3.61 million 5.5% autocallable yield notes on S&P, Russell

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., April 17 - HSBC USA Inc. priced $3.61 million of 5.5% autocallable yield notes due July 21, 2015 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest is payable monthly.

Beginning six months after issuance, the notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly call observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index closes below its trigger level, 80% of its initial level, on any day during the life of the notes and the return of the worst-performing index is negative, in which case investors will receive par plus the return of the worst-performing index.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
