New Issue: Credit Suisse sells $1 million contingent coupon autocallable yield notes on indexes, ETF

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 7 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $1 million of contingent coupon autocallable yield notes due Dec. 5, 2019 linked to the least performing of the S&P 500 index, the Euro Stoxx Banks 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 contingent coupon at an annual rate of 9.7% if each asset closes at or above its coupon barrier, 70% of its initial level, on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be called at par if each asset closes at or above its initial level on any quarterly observation date.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any asset finishes below its 70% knock-in level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the least-performing asset.

J.P. Morgan is the placement agent.
