By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., May 30 - Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. priced $3.5 million of callable buffered monthly Russell 2000 index-linked range accrual notes due May 30, 2021, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will accrue at 6.5% for each day that the index closes at or above the 80% coupon barrier level. Interest is payable monthly.
