By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Jan. 3 – Barclays Bank plc priced $4.43 million of callable contingent coupon notes due Dec. 31, 2019 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the Euro Stoxx 50 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes pay a contingent semiannual coupon at an annual rate of 9.75% if each index closes at or above its trigger, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that period.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its 70% trigger, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index.

The notes are callable at par on any interest payment date.

Barclays is the agent.
