New Issue: HSBC sells $1.7 million autocallable buffered notes with step-up premium on S&P, Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 22 – HSBC USA Inc. priced $1.7 million of 0% autocallable buffered notes with step-up premium due Dec. 22, 2025 linked to the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will be called at par plus an 8.8% annualized premium if the indexes close at or above the call threshold on any quarterly call observation date starting March 17, 2022. The call threshold will be 100% of each index’s initial level.

If the notes are not called, the payout will be par unless either index falls below 90% of its initial level, in which case investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline of the lesser performing index beyond 10%.

HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is the agent.
