New Issue: Barclays prices $12.28 million autocallable step-up notes linked to S&P 500
By Angela McDaniels
Tacoma, Wash., May 15 – Barclays Bank plc priced $12.28 million of 0% autocallable market-linked step-up notes due May 26, 2023 linked to the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The notes will be automatically called at par of $10 plus a call premium of 5.8% per year if the index closes at or above the initial index level on any of five annual call observation dates.
If the notes are not called and the final index level is greater than the step-up value, 135% of the initial index level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the index return.
If the final index level is greater than or equal to the initial level but less than or equal to the step-up value, the payout will be par plus the step-up payment, 35%.
If the final index level is less than the initial level by up to 15%, the payout will be par. Otherwise, investors will lose 1% for every 1% that the index declines beyond 15%.
BofA Merrill Lynch is the agent.
