New Issue: RBC prices $940,000 contingent coupon barrier autocallables tied to indexes, ETF

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, June 14 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $940,000 of autocallable contingent coupon barrier notes due June 12, 2020 linked to the least performing of the S&P 500 index, the Euro Stoxx 50 index and the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 8.22% if each asset closes above its trigger level, 75% of its initial level, on the review date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par plus the coupon if each asset closes above its initial price on a review date, starting June 11, 2018.

The payout at maturity will be par plus the final coupon unless any asset finishes below the 75% trigger level, in which case investors will lose 1% for each 1% that the least-performing asset’s final level is less than its initial level.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the agent.
