New Issue: RBC sells $2.1 million trigger phoenix autocallables tied to two stocks

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., July 27 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $2.1 million of trigger phoenix autocallable notes due July 27, 2018 linked to the worst performing of the common stocks of Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co., according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon of 8% per year if each stock closes at or above its coupon barrier level, 75% of its initial price, on any quarterly observation date.

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

If the notes are not called and each stock finishes at or above its 75% trigger level, the payout at maturity will be par plus the final contingent coupon. Otherwise, investors will receive a number of shares of the worst-performing stock equal to $1,000 divided by its initial price or, at the issuer’s option, the cash value of those shares.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the agent.
