New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $74,000 10.75% contingent coupon autocalls tied to index, fund

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Dec. 15 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $74,000 of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due June 5, 2019 linked to the least performing of the SPDR S&P Oil & Gas Exploration & Production exchange-traded fund 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 of 10.75% if each underlying component closes at or above its 75% coupon barrier on an observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each component closes above its initial level on any quarterly call date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either component ever closes below its 75% knock-in level during the life of the notes, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the worse performing index or fund.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
