New Issue: RBC sells $2 million contingent coupon barrier autocallables on S&P, Russell

By Wendy Van Sickle

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 14 – Royal Bank of Canada priced $2 million of autocallable contingent coupon barrier notes due Nov. 7, 2019 linked to the lesser performing of the S&P 500 index and the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The notes will pay a contingent quarterly coupon at an annual rate of 5.2% if each index closes at or above its 70% coupon barrier on the observation date for that quarter.

The notes will be automatically called at par if each index closes its initial price on any observation date beginning on May 2, 2019.

The payout at maturity will be par unless either index finishes below its 60% trigger price, in which case investors will be fully exposed to any losses of the least-performing index.

RBC Capital Markets, LLC is the agent.
