New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $168,000 CS autocallable notes linked to RavenPack AIS Balanced

By Kiku Steinfeld

Chicago, July 3 – Credit Suisse AG, London Branch priced $168,000 of 0% CS autocallable notes due June 2, 2026 linked to the Credit Suisse RavenPack AIS Balanced 5% ER index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange.

If the index closes above its trigger level on any annual trigger observation date, the notes will be automatically redeemed and the payout will be par plus an automatic redemption premium of 6% per year.

The trigger level is 102.25% of the initial index level on the first trigger observation date and increases by 225 basis points each year.

The payout at maturity will be par plus 150% of any index gain, if the index closes above its initial level. If the index is flat or falls, the payout will be par.

The index is designed to provide exposure to a hypothetical balanced portfolio while targeting a realized daily volatility of 5%. The index’s hypothetical portfolio may, under certain circumstances, include both equity exposure, in the form of large-cap U.S. equities included in an excess return version of the Credit Suisse RavenPack Artificial Intelligence Sentiment index, and fixed-income exposure, in the form of U.S. Treasury note futures contracts tracked by the Credit Suisse 10-Year U.S. Treasury Note Futures index and the Credit Suisse 2-Year U.S. Treasury Note Futures index.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Incapital LLC are the agents.
