New Issue: Credit Suisse prices $1.13 million high/low coupon buffered securities linked to Russell

By Toni Weeks

San Luis Obispo, Calif., April 29 - Credit Suisse AG, Nassau Branch priced $1.13 million of high/low coupon buffered securities due April 30, 2018 linked to the Russell 2000 index, according to a 424B2 filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

A coupon barrier event occurs if the index falls below the coupon barrier level on any of five annual observation dates. The coupon barrier level is 100% of the initial index level.

If a coupon barrier event does not occur for an annual interest period, the corresponding interest rate for that interest period is 5.3% per year. Otherwise it is 1.5%.

If the final index level is at least 80% of the initial level, the payout at maturity will be par. Otherwise investors will lose 1% for every 1% decline beyond the 20% buffer.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC is the agent.
