New Issue: HSBC prices $1.07 million 6.5% contingent market-linked autocalls on indexes

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 26 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $1.07 million of market-linked securities due Feb. 22, 2021 – autocallable with contingent coupon and contingent downside linked to the least performing of the S&P 500 index, the Euro Stoxx 50 index 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 annual rate of 6.5% if each index closes at or above its 65% threshold on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each index closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date one year.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any index finishes below its 65% threshold, in which case the payout will be par plus the return of the worst performing index with full exposure to any losses.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities LLC is the agent.
