See the risk factors and “Use of Simulated Returns” herein. Risks Relating to the Index HSBC USA Inc. and HSBC Bank USA, N.A. (together, “HSBC”), are members of the HSBC Group. Any member of the HSBC Group may from time to time underwrite, make a market or otherwise buy and sell, as principal, structured investments, or together with their directors, officers and employers may have either long or short positions in the structured investments, or stocks, commodities or currencies to which the structured investments are linked, or may perform or seek to perform investment banking services for those linked assets mentioned herein. These activities maybe in conflict with the interests of investors of debt obligations or certificates of deposit issued by members of the HSBC Group. The Index may be partially uninvested. The strategy tracks the excess return of a notional dynamic basket of equities and cash over a change in the ICE LIBOR USD 3 Month interest rate. The weight of a Cash Investment (if any) for a Monthly Reference Portfolio at any given time represents the portion of the Monthly Reference Portfolio that is uninvested in the applicable equity basket at that time. As such, any allocation to a Cash Investment within the Index, which also accrues at the ICE LIBOR USD 3 Month interest rate, will not affect the level of the Index. The Index will reflect no return for any uninvested portion (i.e., any portion represented by a Cash Investment). Accordingly, to the extent that the Index is allocated to the Cash Investment, it may not reflect the full increase of any relevant equity component. Under certain circumstances, the Index may be 100% allocated to the Cash Investment.
