New Issue: Barclays prices $1.39 million phoenix autocallables on Russell, S&P

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, May 2 – Barclays Bank plc priced $1.39 million of phoenix autocallable notes due April 30, 2024 linked to the lesser performing of the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at a rate of 6% per year if each index closes at or above its barrier level, 60% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be automatically called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date, beginning in April 2018.

If each index finishes at or above its 60% barrier level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the lesser-performing index.

Barclays is the agent.
