New Issue: Barclays issues $2.79 million phoenix autocallables on Russell 2000

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., March 27 – Barclays Bank plc priced $2.79 million of phoenix autocallable notes due March 24, 2022 linked to the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Every quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 9.6% per year if the index closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 82% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarterly period. Otherwise, no coupon will be paid for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if the index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date other than the final one, beginning on Sept. 21, 2017.

If the notes are not called, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon, if any, unless the index finishes below its barrier level of 60% of the initial level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the index finishes below its initial level.

Barclays is the agent.
