New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $12 million range accrual notes linked to S&P, Russell

By Angela McDaniels

Tacoma, Wash., Oct. 28 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $12 million of callable fixed-to-daily range accrual notes due Oct. 31, 2031 linked to the Russell 2000 index and the S&P 500 index, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The interest rate is fixed at 10% for the first year. Beginning Oct. 31, 2017, the interest rate will be 10% per year multiplied by the proportion of days on which each index closes at or above its accrual barrier, 70% of its initial level. Interest is payable monthly.

Beginning Oct. 31, 2017, the notes will be callable quarterly at par.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index falls by more than 50%, in which case investors will be exposed to the worse-performing index’s decline from its initial level.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
