US Wrap: RBC mixes reverse convertibles and growth

Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) has joined the latest trend for reverse convertible products, launching two new notes linked to Wells Fargo. The structures have three month maturities and differ in terms of pricing. While one note offers a conversion barrier of 65%, the other's is set at 60%. The difference is reflected in the available coupons, which annualised are 17.05% and 12.15% respectively.
