New Issue: RBC prices $6.74 million contingent income autocalls on three ETFs

By Sarah Lizee

Olympia, Wash., March 26 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $6.74 million of contingent income autocallable securities due March 25, 2021 linked to the worst performing of the SPDR S&P 500 ETF trust, the iShares Russell 2000 ETF and the iShares MSCI Brazil ETF, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Each quarter, the notes will pay a contingent coupon at an annual rate of 10.35% if each ETF closes at or above its threshold level, 60% of its initial level, on the determination date for that quarter.

The notes will be automatically called at par if each ETF closes at or above its initial level on any of the first seven contingent coupon payment dates.

The payout at maturity will be par unless any ETF finishes below its threshold level, in which case investors will be fully exposed to the decline of the worst-performing ETF.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the agent. Morgan Stanley Wealth Management is handling distribution.
