US Wrap: UBS and JP Morgan vie for space in reverse convertibles

UBS and JP Morgan have both released a handful of reverse convertible notes into the US structured products market. The notes included financials (Citi, Wells Fargo and Bank of America) and commodity equities (US Steel and Freeport McMoran).

JP Morgan simultaneously launched several accelerated growth notes which focused on US equity indexes. Credit Suisse launched two notes linked to the S&P 500 index and as usual trumped other players on participation rates, offering 400% with no leveraged downside. The note lasts either 18 months or 15 months, with caps of 114.75-116.75%. Each incorporates a downside buffer of 10%.
