New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $500,000 step-up contingent coupon callable yield notes on Nasdaq, Russell
By Wendy Van Sickle
Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 2 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch, priced $500,000 of step-up contingent coupon callable yield notes due July 27, 2020 linked to the Nasdaq-100 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon unless either index closes below its barrier level, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter. The contingent coupon is 5% per annum initially, stepping up to 8% on July 29, 2019.
The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless either index finishes below its 70% knock-in level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% decline of the lesser performing index.
The notes are callable in whole but not in part at par on any quarterly early redemption date.
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
