New Issue: HSBC sells $3 million autocallable barrier notes on S&P, Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 15 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $3 million of autocallable barrier notes with contingent return due Dec. 20, 2027 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each index closes at or above its coupon barrier, 75% of its initial level, on a quarterly observation date, the notes will pay a contingent coupon that quarter at an annual rate of 7.35%.

The notes will be called at par plus the contingent coupon if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date beginning Dec. 20, 2018.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the contingent coupon unless either index finishes below the 55% trigger level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the worse performing index from its initial level.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
