New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $8.1 million trigger phoenix autocallables on Russell, Euro Stoxx

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., May 19 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $8.1 million of trigger phoenix autocallable optimization securities due May 21, 2025 linked to the least performing of the Russell 2000 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 8% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 65% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

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

If the notes are not called and each index finishes at or above its 50% trigger level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon, if any. Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the least-performing index.

UBS Financial Services Inc. is acting as distributor.
