By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 20 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $255,000 of 0% digital dual directional barrier securities due Jan. 21, 2020 linked to the least performing of the Euro Stoxx 50 index, the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

If each underlying component closes at or above its 70% barrier level on each day during the life of the notes, the payout at maturity will be par plus the digital return of 7.5%.

Otherwise, investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst performing component.
