By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Oct. 29 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $600,000 of issuer callable contingent coupon barrier notes due Oct. 27, 2020 linked to the Euro Stoxx 50 index, the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes pay a contingent coupon at the rate of 9.9% per year if each index closes at or above its coupon barrier level 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.
