New Issue: HSBC prices $270,000 barrier digital return notes tied to Russell, Dow

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 7 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $270,000 of 0% barrier digital return notes due Sept. 3, 2019 linked to the lesser performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A trigger event occurs if either index closes below its 65% barrier level at any time on any trading day during the life of the notes.

If a trigger event does not occur, the payout at maturity will be par plus 7.5%.

If a trigger event occurs but each index finishes at or above its initial level, the payout will be par.

Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worse performing index.
