Samuraj I Bank Debt Instrument available in the Prestige range from Bank Millennium

Bank Millennium is issuing the new Samuraj I structured product, linked to the NIKKEI 225 index

Samuraj I is a three-year to bank debt instrument denominated in PLN, with fully protected principal on maturity date. The yield on the product depends on the evolution of the NIKKEI 225 index, the key index of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which comprises 225 top companies listed on this stock market.
The investor will earn on growth of the index. The final participation level depends on the index level as observed during the first eighteen months of the investment: 

  • if the index does not touch or exceed the threshold of 140% of initial value, participation will stand at 60% (moderate index growth); 
  • if the level of 140% of index initial value was touched or exceeded, participation will be 30% (strong index growth).

The Samuraj I redemption amount is calculated with the following formula:
If in the first 18 months of the investment the index is never higher or equal to 140% of initial value, on maturity date the Customer will receive: 
100% + 60% * MAX [0%, INDEX FINAL VALUE / INDEX INITIAL VALUE - 1] 
If in the first 18 months of the investment the index is at least once higher than or equal to 140% of initial value, on maturity date the Customer will receive: 
100% + 30% * MAX [0%, INDEX FINAL VALUE / INDEX INITIAL VALUE - 1]
