New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $2.7 million step-up contingent coupon callable notes on indexes

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Jan. 29 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $2.7 million of step-up contingent coupon callable yield notes due Jan. 30, 2025 linked to the Euro Stoxx 50 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annualized rate if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 75% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter. The coupon will be 9% initially, stepping up to 10% on April 30, 2019 and to 12% on April 28, 2023.

The payout at maturity will be par unless the index finishes below its 50% knock-in level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to losses.

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

Incapital LLC is the agent.
