New Issue: Barclays prices $6.24 million callable range accrual notes on Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 4 – Barclays Bank plc priced $6.24 million of callable range accrual notes due May 30, 2023 linked to the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Interest will accrue at 7% per year multiplied by the proportion of days on which the index closes at or above the coupon barrier level, which is 80% of the initial level. Interest is payable monthly.

If the final index level is greater than or equal to the 80% buffer level, the payout at maturity will be par. Investors will lose 1% for each 1% loss below the buffer.

After one year, the notes will be callable at par on any interest payment date.

Barclays is the underwriter.
