PS-4

INVESTOR SUITABILITY

The Notes may be suitable for you if:

} You are willing to make an investment that provides quarterly interest payment at a variable rate equal to 66% of the CMS10, subject to the Minimum Coupon Rate.

} You believe that the CMS10 will generally be positive on the Coupon Determination Dates at an amount sufficient to provide you with a satisfactory return on your investment.

} You are willing to accept the risk and return profile of the Notes versus a conventional debt security with a comparable maturity issued by HSBC or another issuer with a similar credit rating.

} You do not seek an investment for which there will be an active secondary market.

} You are willing to hold the Notes to maturity.

} You are comfortable with the creditworthiness of HSBC, as Issuer of the Notes.

The Notes may not be suitable for you if:

} You are unwilling to invest in the Notes that provide quarterly interest payment at a variable rate equal to 66% of the CMS10, subject to the Minimum Coupon Rate.

} You believe that the CMS10 will not generally be positive on the Coupon Determination Dates at an amount sufficient to provide you with a satisfactory return on your investment.

} You prefer the lower risk, and therefore accept the potentially lower returns, of conventional debt securities with comparable maturities issued by HSBC or another issuer with a similar credit rating.

} You seek an investment for which there will be an active secondary market.

} You are unable or unwilling to hold the Notes to maturity.

} You are not willing or are unable to assume the credit risk associated with HSBC, as Issuer of the Notes.

PS-5

Risk Factors

You should understand the risks of investing in the Notes and should reach an investment decision only after careful consideration, with your advisors, of the suitability of the Notes in light of your particular financial circumstances and the information set forth in this pricing supplement and the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus.

In addition to the following risks, you should review “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-3 in the accompanying prospectus supplement including the explanation of risks relating to the Notes described in the following sections:

· “— Risks Relating to All Note Issuances” in the prospectus supplement.

The Coupon Rate for Each Quarterly Coupon Payment Period Is Uncertain and Could Be as Low as the Minimum Coupon Rate.

You will receive a quarterly Coupon on the applicable Coupon Payment Date that accrues at a rate per annum equal to 66% of the CMS10, subject to the Minimum Coupon Rate. The CMS10 may be influenced by a number of factors, including (but not limited to) monetary policies, fiscal policies, inflation, general economic conditions and public expectations with respect to such factors. The effect that any single factor may have on the CMS10 may be partially offset by other factors. We cannot predict the factors that may cause the CMS10 to increase or decrease. A CMS10 that is less than or equal to approximately 2.86% per annum will cause the Coupon Rate for the applicable Coupon Payment Date to be equal to the Minimum Coupon Rate, and you will not be compensated for any loss in value due to inflation and other factors relating to the value of money over time. You should consider, among other things, the overall potential annual Coupon Rate to maturity of the Notes as compared to other investment alternatives.

The Annualized Coupon Rate for Each Quarterly Coupon Payment Period May Be Less than the CMS10.

Your participation in the level of the CMS10 will be 66%, subject to the Minimum Coupon Rate. Therefore, the annualized Coupon Rate for each quarterly Coupon Payment Period may be less than the level of the CMS10 on the applicable Coupon Determination Date.

The Notes Are Not Ordinary Debt Securities and the Coupon Rate Is Not Fixed for any Coupon Payment Period and Is Variable.

The Coupon Rate is not fixed for any Coupon Payment Period, and will equal 66% of the CMS10, subject to the Minimum Coupon Rate. The Coupon Rate may be less than returns otherwise payable on debt securities issued by us with similar maturities. We have no control over any fluctuations in the CMS10.

The Notes Are Subject to the Credit Risk of HSBC USA Inc.

The Notes are senior unsecured debt obligations of the Issuer, HSBC, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. As further described in the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus, the Notes will rank on par with all of the other unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of HSBC, except such obligations as may be preferred by operation of law. Any payment to be made on the Notes, including the return of the Principal Amount at maturity and all Coupons, depends on the ability of HSBC to satisfy its obligations as they come due. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of HSBC may affect the market value of the Notes and, in the event HSBC were to default on its obligations, you may not receive the amounts owed to you under the terms of the Notes.

The Notes Are Not Insured or Guaranteed by Any Governmental Agency of the United States or Any Other Jurisdiction.

The Notes are not deposit liabilities or other obligations of a bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency or program of the United States or any other jurisdiction. An investment in the Notes is subject to the credit risk of HSBC, and in the event that HSBC is unable to pay its obligations as they become due, you may not receive the amounts payable on the Notes.

The Estimated Initial Value of the Notes, which was determined by us on the Pricing Date, is less than the price to public and may differ from the market value of the Notes in the secondary market, if any.

The Estimated Initial Value of the Notes was calculated by us on the Pricing Date and is less than the price to public. The Estimated Initial Value reflects our internal funding rate, which is the borrowing rate we use to issue market-linked notes, as well as the mid-market value of the embedded derivatives in the Notes. This internal funding rate is typically lower than the rate we would use when we issue conventional fixed or floating rate debt securities. As a result of the difference between our internal funding rate and the rate we would use when we issue conventional fixed or floating rate debt securities, the Estimated Initial Value of the Notes may be lower if it were based on the levels at which our fixed or floating rate debt securities trade in the secondary market. In addition, if we were to use the rate we use for our conventional fixed or floating rate debt issuances, we would expect the economic terms of the Notes to be more favorable to you. We determined the value of the embedded derivatives in the Notes by reference to our or our affiliates’ internal pricing models. These pricing models consider certain assumptions and variables, which can include volatility and interest rates. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the Notes that are different from our Estimated Initial Value. These pricing

PS-6

models rely in part on certain forecasts about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. The Estimated Initial Value does not represent a minimum price at which we or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase your Notes in the secondary market (if any exists) at any time.

The price of your Notes in the secondary market, if any, immediately after the Pricing Date will be less than the price to public.

The price to public takes into account certain costs. These costs, which will be used or retained by us or one of our affiliates, include the underwriting discount, our affiliates’ projected hedging profits (which may or may not be realized) for assuming risks inherent in hedging our obligations under the Notes and the costs associated with structuring and hedging our obligations under the Notes. If you were to sell your Notes in the secondary market, if any, the price you would receive for your Notes may be less than the price you paid for them because secondary market prices will not take into account these costs. The price of your Notes in the secondary market, if any, at any time after issuance will vary based on many factors, including the level of the CMS10 and changes in market conditions, and cannot be predicted with accuracy. The Notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments, and you should, therefore, be able and willing to hold the Notes to maturity. Any sale of the Notes prior to maturity could result in a loss to you.

If we were to repurchase your Notes immediately after the Original Issue Date, the price you receive may be higher than the Estimated Initial Value of the Notes.

Assuming that all relevant factors remain constant after the Original Issue Date, the price at which HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. may initially buy or sell the Notes in the secondary market, if any, and the value that we may initially use for customer account statements, if we provide any customer account statements at all, may exceed the Estimated Initial Value on the Pricing Date for a temporary period expected to be approximately six months after the Original Issue Date. This temporary price difference may exist because, in our discretion, we may elect to effectively reimburse to investors a portion of the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Notes and other costs in connection with the Notes that we will no longer expect to incur over the term of the Notes. We will make such discretionary election and determine this temporary reimbursement period on the basis of a number of factors, including the tenor of the Notes and any agreement we may have with the distributors of the Notes. The amount of our estimated costs which we effectively reimburse to investors in this way may not be allocated ratably throughout the reimbursement period, and we may discontinue such reimbursement at any time or revise the duration of the reimbursement period after the Original Issue Date of the Notes based on changes in market conditions and other factors that cannot be predicted.

The Notes Lack Liquidity.

The Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is not required to offer to purchase the Notes in the secondary market, if any exists. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the Notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the Notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your Notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. is willing to buy the Notes.

Potential Conflicts of Interest May Exist.

HSBC and its affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the Notes, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the Notes. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the Notes. We will not have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the Notes in taking any action that might affect the value of your Notes.

Tax Treatment.

For a discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in a Note, please see the discussion under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” herein and the discussion under “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the accompanying prospectus supplement.

The 10-year U.S. Dollar Constant Maturity Swap Rate, and Therefore the Value of the Notes, May be Volatile and Will Be Affected by a Number of Factors.

The CMS10, and therefore the value of the Notes, is subject to volatility due to a variety of factors, including but not limited to:

· interest and yield rates in the market,

· changes in, or perceptions, about the future level of the CMS10,

· general economic conditions,

· policies of the Federal Reserve Board regarding interest rates,

· sentiment regarding underlying strength in the U.S. and global economies,

· expectations regarding the level of price inflation,

· sentiment regarding credit quality in the U.S. and global credit markets,

PS-7

· central bank policy regarding interest rates,

· inflation and expectations concerning inflation,

· performance of capital markets,

· geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect markets generally and that may affect the CMS10,

· the time remaining to the maturity of the Notes, and

· the creditworthiness of the Issuer.

The impact of any of the factors set forth above may enhance or offset some or any of the changes resulting from another factor or factors. Decreases in the CMS10 could result in the corresponding Coupon Rate decreasing or a Coupon Rate equal to the Minimum Coupon Rate and thus in the reduction of the Coupon payable on the Notes.  

PS-8

ILLUSTRATIVE EXAMPLES

The following scenario analysis and examples are provided for illustrative purposes only and are hypothetical. They do not purport to be representative of every possible scenario concerning increases or decreases in the CMS10 and we cannot predict the CMS10 on any Coupon Determination Date. You should not take the scenario analysis and these examples as an indication or assurance of the expected performance of the CMS10. The numbers set forth in the examples below have been rounded for ease of analysis. The following scenario analysis and examples illustrate the Coupon determination for a $1,000.00 Principal Amount of Notes, assume that there are 90 days in each quarterly period and reflect the Minimum Coupon Rate of 2% per annum.

Hypothetical CMS10	Hypothetical Coupon Rate Per Annum	Hypothetical  Coupon per Quarter
10.00%	6.60%	$16.50
9.00%	5.94%	$14.85
8.00%	5.28%	$13.20
7.00%	4.62%	$11.55
6.00%	3.96%	$9.90
5.00%	3.30%	$8.25
4.50%	3.97%	$7.43
4.00%	2.64%	$6.60
3.50%	2.31%	$5.78
3.03%	2.00%	$5.00
3.00%	2.00%	$5.00
2.00%	2.00%	$5.00
1.00%	2.00%	$5.00
0.00%	2.00%	$5.00
-1.00%	2.00%	$5.00
-2.00%	2.00%	$5.00
-3.00%	2.00%	$5.00
-4.00%	2.00%	$5.00
-5.00%	2.00%	$5.00

Example 1: On a Coupon Determination Date, the CMS10 is equal to 0.00%. Because 66% of the CMS10 of 0.00% is 0.00% per annum, which is less than the Minimum Coupon Rate, the Coupon Rate for such Coupon Payment Date is equal to 2.00% per annum and the Coupon payment on the relevant Coupon Payment Date would be $5.00 per $1,000 Principal Amount of Notes, calculated as follows:

1,000 × Coupon Rate × 90/360

= $1,000 × 2.00% × 90/360

= $5.00

Example 2: On a Coupon Determination Date, the CMS10 is equal to 8.00%. Because 66% of the CMS10 of 8.00%is 5.28% per annum, the Coupon Rate for such Coupon Payment Date is equal to 5.60% per annum and the Coupon payment on the relevant Coupon Payment Date would be $13.20 per $1,000 Principal Amount of Notes, calculated as follows:

1,000 × Coupon Rate × 90/360

= $1,000 × 5.28% × 90/360

= $13.20

PS-9

Historical Performance of 10-year U.S. Dollar Constant Maturity Swap Rate

The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the CMS10 based on the daily historical levels from January 1, 2008 through June 13, 2014. We obtained the rates below from the Bloomberg Professional^® Service. We have not undertaken any independent review of, or made any due diligence inquiry with respect to, the information obtained from the Bloomberg Professional^® service. The rates displayed in the graph below are for illustrative purposes only and do not form part of the calculation of the Coupon Rate on the Notes.

The CMS10, as appeared on the Bloomberg Professional^® Service on June 13, 2014, was 2.709%. The rates reported by the Bloomberg Professional^® Service may not be indicative of the CMS10 that will be derived from the applicable Reuters page.

Historical Performance of the CMS10

The historical CMS10 should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the CMS10 on any Coupon Determination Date. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the CMS10 will result in Coupon payments that will provide a satisfactory return on your investment.

PS-10

SUPPLEMENTAL PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION (CONFLICTS OF INTEREST)

We have appointed HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., an affiliate of HSBC, as the agent for the sale of the Notes. Pursuant to the terms of a distribution agreement, HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. will purchase the Notes from HSBC at the price to public less the underwriting discount set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement, for distribution to other registered broker-dealers or will offer the Notes directly to investors. HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. will offer the Notes at the price to public set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement. HSBC USA Inc. or one of our affiliates may pay varying underwriting discounts of up to 1.00% per $1,000 Principal Amount in connection with the distribution of the Notes to other registered broker-dealers.

An affiliate of HSBC has paid or may pay in the future an amount to broker-dealers in connection with the costs of the continuing implementation of systems to support the Notes.

In addition, HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. or another of its affiliates or agents may use this pricing supplement in market-making transactions after the initial sale of the Notes, but is under no obligation to do so and may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice.

See “Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)” on page S-49 in the prospectus supplement.

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

You should carefully consider the matters set forth in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. We and each holder of Notes (in the absence of an administrative determination, judicial ruling or other authoritative guidance to the contrary) agree to treat the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes as indebtedness issued by us that is subject to the special U.S. Treasury Regulations applicable to variable rate debt instruments. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes, and based on certain factual representations received from us, in the opinion of Morrison & Foerster LLP, our special U.S. tax counsel, it is reasonable to treat the Notes as variable rate debt instruments. Except to the extent of any original issue discount, interest paid on the Notes generally should be taxable to you as ordinary interest income at the time it accrues or is received in accordance with your regular method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In addition, a U.S. holder (as defined in the accompanying prospectus supplement) must include any original issue discount in income as ordinary interest as it accrues, possibly in advance of receipt of cash attributable to such income.  You should review the discussion set forth in “U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations – U.S. Federal Income Tax Treatment of the Notes as Indebtedness for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes – Variable Rate Debt Instruments” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. In general, gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange or other disposition of the Notes will be capital gain or loss. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisors as to the federal, state, local and other tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of Notes.

Withholding and reporting requirements under the legislation enacted on March 18, 2010 (as discussed beginning on page S-48 of the prospectus supplement) will generally apply to payments made after June 30, 2014. However, this withholding tax will not be imposed on payments pursuant to obligations outstanding on July 1, 2014. Holders are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation on their investment in the Notes.

VALIDITY OF THE NOTES

In the opinion of Morrison & Foerster LLP, as counsel to the Issuer, when the Notes offered by this pricing supplement have been executed and delivered by the Issuer and authenticated by the trustee pursuant to the Senior Indenture referred to in the prospectus supplement dated March 22, 2012, and issued and paid for as contemplated herein, such Notes will be valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Issuer, entitled to the benefits of the Senior Indenture, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability (including, without limitation, concepts of good faith, fair dealing and the lack of bad faith). This opinion is given as of the date hereof and is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the Maryland General Corporation Law (including the statutory provisions, all applicable provisions of the Maryland Constitution and the reported judicial decisions interpreting the foregoing) and the federal laws of the United States of America. This opinion is subject to customary assumptions about the trustee’s authorization, execution and delivery of the Senior Indenture and the genuineness of signatures and to such counsel’s reliance on the Issuer and other sources as to certain factual matters, all as stated in the legal opinion dated July 27, 2012, which has been filed as Exhibit 5.1 to the Issuer’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 27, 2012.
