The illustration below have been made on a 5 year product with annual observations, assuming a 5% Coupon, an Autocall Barrier of 100%, a Protection Barrier of 60% and a Coupon Barrier of 80% over the initial level.
At year 1, the level of the underlying is below the Autocall Barrier and equal to the Coupon Barrier. The product continues and the investor receives the 5% coupon.
At year 2, the level of the underlying is above the Autocall Barrier. The product is early redeemed and the investor receives:
100% Initial Investment + Coupon of year 2 = 100% + 5%
On all the annual observations, the level of the underlying is below the Autocall Barrier. The product continues.
At year 2, year 4 and maturity, the level of the underlying is above the Coupon Barrier. The investor receives 3 x 5%.
At maturity, the level of the underlying is above the Protection Barrier. The investor receives:
100% Initial Investment
On all the annual observations, the level of the underlying is below the Autocall and Coupon Barriers. The product continues and no coupon is paid.
At maturity, the level of the underlying is below the Protection Barrier. The investor receives:
(Final/initial level) x Initial Investment
